Description
Filament swatch with colour match cutout This model is a remix of @Makkuro ‘s excellent Filament Swatch. While I value the quality assessment properties of the original I’m more interested in using these as a log of colours I've used and for testing potential colour combinations of filament. If you want to use the SCAD file please refer to the excellent usage instructions in the original mode's description. The main feature of this remix is the inclusion of some code in the scad file that dynamically generates a rectangular cutout between the lower left and lower right texts. Right now this has not been properly modularized / parameterised, I can look to update if there is interest. The SCAD as posted features opinions specific to my taste: Top text = 5 Bottom text = 4 Reduced step area height. The cutout will be malformed if you push the top text size above 6 or the bottom above 5. You've been warned! I also have some different views around what text goes where (and what labels are important). My personal style guide is: Top Right - Colour Name Bottom Right - Filament Type Bottom Left - Layer Height & Print Temperature Top Text - Filament Brand The code comments have been edited accordingly. — I'm including the swatches I've so far generated, I don't expect many people to be able to re-use them though :)
