About this print

An OpenSCAD parametric library that generates knurled or diamond-pattern textures on cylindrical surfaces for use in custom part designs. Designers use it to add a mechanical grip finish to bolts, knobs, handles, and similar components without building the texture geometry from scratch. Parts produced from this library are typically printed in PLA or PETG, with the choice depending on the strength and environmental requirements of the finished component.

Original maker's notes

By aubenc on Thingiverse · CC-BY

YAPML yet another poor man's library that makes things finding it hard to render and taking its time to compile. In this case the self-replicating polyhedron is intended to give a mechanical touch to your freshly (or not) designed cylindrical surfaces. Hmmmm... you can also thing that those things all-around the cylinder are diamonds and use it for jewelry.
