3D printer file info

3D model description

A simple script to randomly generate crystals with an adjustable number of spires. I may add support for placing an LED inside in the future. Probably not everything that it generates is printable, but most angles should be within the tolerances of common printers.

UPDATE: the v2_02_2022 version of the file has support for named seeds so that a memorable word/phrase can be used to reliably generate the same crystal. Requires a newer version of OpenSCAD that supports the ord() function, I believe its v2019.05+
