Simple OpenSCAD library to add 3D text (with optional pedestal to print vertical or sheer text) to OpenSCAD models.
You must place place the scad_text.scad file in your current path and import it (using import <scad_text.scad>).
The following function is exposed: writeText(x, y, z, textIn, depth=4, size=5). This function draws the textIn string at the (x,y,z) coordinates with a depth of 4 units and at the specified size. Sample code is in example.scad and is copied below. A writeTextWithPedestal legacy function is exposed as well, which creates a pedestal/support under text at a fixed size.
include <scad_text.scad>
translate([0,6,0])cube(10, center=true);
writeTextWithPedestal(0,0,0, "SK");Produces:
