I can't figure out how to apply any of the solutions in those to my
current problem, so I'm hoping someone can point me in the right
direction.
Here's an example using the OpenSCAD cosine/sine intersection approach
for a tube / cube interface:
handle_dia = 50;
handle_thickness = 10;
fillet_radius=5;
sigma = 0.01;
module makePiece(tubedia=handle_thickness, pthick=fillet_radius,
fillet_angle=0, do_fillet=false){
intersection(){
rotate_extrude(angle=180){
translate([handle_dia/2,0]) circle(d=tubedia);
}
if(do_fillet){
translate([0,-fillet_radius/2 + fillet_radius * sin(fillet_angle),0])
cube([handle_dia2,pthick,handle_dia/2], center=true);
}
}
if(!do_fillet){
translate([0,-fillet_radius/2,0])
cube([handle_dia2,fillet_radius,handle_dia/2], center=true);
}
}
makePiece(do_fillet=false, $fn=16);
for(fang = [2:5:90], $fn=16){
makePiece(
tubedia=handle_thickness + fillet_radius * (1-cos(fang)),
pthick=fillet_radius + fillet_radius * (1-sin(fang)),
do_fillet=true);
}
