Description
Alphabet letters A-Z (upper and lower case) based on Arial-Black font. All of the letters are 22mm thick. The heights are 90mm for uppercase letters 60mm for the lowercase letters.
I did this as a project to see if I could take data from a font file and convert it to STL, and to create set of these block letters for my grandson.
The process involved creating SVG files for each letter, then using code (Python) to convert the SVG paths to X,Y coordinates and generated openjscad code (Javascript) that can create the STL file. I also rounded the edges of the letters so they weren't so hard (and to get rid of any sharp corners). This did make the generated STL files pretty large.
