I try to use openscad for all my 'opensource' 3d parts. It's been a while
since i've been out of touch, and now i am trying to create something that
must change from a square to a circle.
I found some examples using skin() on
https://github.com/openscad/list-comprehension-demos that might do the
trick. But trying to run them show that my version does not understand a
method used there "to_3d()". And searching for "openscad to_3d" is
extremely useless. I only get results for things like "turn this 2d
drawing to 3d" type of stuff. I can't even tell if that is a custom
(utils?) method or native.
Anyway, i am trying to achieve something similar to
https://grabcad.com/tutorials/extruding-from-square-to-round but with a
controllable thickness skin.
What's the best way to go about it? Any suggestions?
