Small, hinged polygons to assemble polyhedrons and play with. For more information, see the fillygons website.
The repository needs a working OpenScad installation to work, see OpenSCAD Template for instructions. Also, Python 3.4 or later is necessary.
To run, the Python project in the repository needs to be installed into a virtualenv and the virtualenv needs to be activated the Makefile needs an activated Python virtualenv with the Python project in the repository installed:
$ python3 -m venv venv
$ . venv/bin/activate
(venv) $ pip install -e .

Type make -j 10 generated
to generate OpenSCAD source files for all variants. The files are placed in subdirectories of src/variants
.
You can either open up the .scad
files on OpenSCAD or compile them directly to STL files using e.g. make src/variants/0.2mm/4-gon/normal.scad
.
To build all STL files, run make stl
. But this will take a very long time, up to several hours.
Therefore this repository contains precompiled STL files:
(venv) $ make
[generate_sources] 433 files
[openscad] src/variants/0.2mm/3-gon/filled.stl
[...]
Some unit tests are included in the form images being rendered from of specifically generated test STL files. The rendered images are compared with expected images. Run make test
to compare the rendered to the expected images and report any differences
To add new fillygon models, edit the file fillygons/generate_sources/variants.py
