Sample Python programs which create interesting objects in FreeCAD. You can open these files as Python programs using File>Open in FreeCAD version 1.0.
All the programs are in the code folder.
When you run this program it creates a simple panel.
When you run this program it creates a punched card with random holes in it.
# Enter the text that you want to encode
secret_text = "Secret"
# Select how many panels you want to produce
no_of_panels = 3
# Set the hole spacing on the decoder panel in mm
hole_x_spacing = 3.0
hole_y_spacing = 3.0
# Set the thickness of each panel in mm
height = 2.0
You can configure the program by changing these values at the top of the program.
Have Fun!
