This is a snowflake simulator written in python by Rachael Holmes and Giles Hall. It builds realistic looking snowflakes by modeling the phase transistions between water molecules at a mesoscopic scale. The model is lifted (verbatim) from "MODELING SNOW CRYSTAL GROWTH II: A mesoscopic lattice map with plausible dynamics" by Janko Gravner and David Griffeath.

Requirements:

* PyPy (for fast execution of the simulations)
* PIL for exporting graphics (PyPy accesible)

Requirements for Laser Cutting:

* Python only (no PyPy support)
* PIL (Python accessible)
* potrace (For translating SVG)
* scipy/numpy (For clustering)

Requirements for 3D Printing:

* PyPy or Python
* PIL (PyPy/Python accessible)
* potrace (For translating SVG)
* pstoedit (For generating EPS)
* ghostscript v 9.20 (For generating DXF. Versions > 9.20 break this functionaliy)
* OpenSCAD (For generating STL)
* CURA (For generating gcode. Currently not working)
