**Customizable LEGO compatible Text Bricks**

This is a customizer for creating LEGO® compatible rectangular bricks with text engraved on the sides (all 4 sides). You can of course also use it to create bricks without any text. It can create bricks as small as 1x1x1 (plate height) or as large as 48x48x18 (6 normal bricks high).

The tolerance is in addition to the required 0.2 mm play and is subtracted from both sides of all walls so that a tolerance of 0.05 would make the previously mentioned bricks 31.7x15.7 mm and 47.7x15.7 mm. If your printed bricks are too tight you'll probably want to set this to a non-zero value to loosen the fit. For complete control over the fit, the customizer also has a section that allows you to…
