Nop Head, I looked at the readme.md,
This looks like real high quality mechanical and electronic components
Model library.
Very good to know  where to look for these now!

Also very cool to have a BOM and .stl build system in Python
Thanks for sharing great Work.

Thanks

Yes, most libraries are more concentrated on making printed parts using
complex maths. My library is mainly for making accurate assembly views to
make sure my printed parts fit around them. Nearly every project I build
adds more parts to it. I am currently working on this perf board assembly:

and another user of the library made this cute printer with it.

can not imagine this is all Openscad. Awesome! Things went very far way.
p.s: i see you like Wemos-like-ESP-boards too :)
I see your approach now, i also had to somehow model the
environment/assemblies several times, though rarely so precise, as you do.
very impressive.

Can't imagine how much work the printer was.
Is it near-real-time animatable? never!

I imagine the preview can be panned and rotated in near real time with the
vertex buffer options turned on but for an actual animation with the axes
moving I would expect it needs to be recorded as a video and played back
faster.
