Using OpenSCAD I show you how to create a basic project enclosure. This is Part II - The Lid This Part Introduces linear_extrusion I demonstrate using the function with a square and a circle.
the kind of "flickering" you see is because the 2 shapes share the exact same face, but that only happens in preview. When you press F6 to generate the printable object they do not appear at all. Also, the linear_extrude can be done over the difference function, instead of over each part of it. That reduces the number of operations and eliminate the flickering effect too
Great video+explanation+presentation! Thank you SO MUCH for sharing your knowledge! Well done mate 🙏🏻

great video. great job
It says that OpenSCAD doesn't support 2D shapes. Making the square and circle impossible? Am I the only one? Running Windows 10.
once you extrude them they are 3D
makes sense. in 3d world cant have 0 thickness.make it 0.000000000001 :P
