Tubular Sand Shovel (remix)

A sand shovel for gardening remix. The original is the Tubular sand shovel with tamping surface by PetrK. I made a copy of the 3D model with a script in OpenSCAD. The script is also included.

OpenSCAD is free software: https://openscad.org/
The script needs an OpenSCAD version of at least 2024 with the optimizations turned on. It does not work with an old version of OpenSCAD from 2021.

The "Customizer" in OpenSCAD allows to change the size, the thickness of the walls and other settings. As an extra, holes can be added and a text can be added to the handle.

The holes are not round, but pointy at the top. That is to avoid dripping overhangs. I have not printed this model with the holes yet (the front photo is render).

A smooth bevel, chamfer and fillet is not easy in OpenSCAD without the use of a library. The difference is shown in this picture:


 

A few stl files have been made with the script and can be downloaded and printed.

The license of this remix is of course the same as the original: CC BY-NC-SA. The 3D model may not be used commercially.
