Missing nut trap in X_idler_bracket, where is scad source? about mendel90 HOT 5 CLOSED

https://github.com/nophead/Mendel90/blob/master/scad/x-end.scad

Yes it is a bug in OpenScad but it slices OK with Skeinforge.

This file is a complete assembly including motor and clamps. I just need
the x_motor_bracket and x_idler_bracket pats. How can I extract them?

Not sure what you mean by extract them. That is the source code that makes those parts. If you want to change the parts, that is file you edit. You just change the module called x_end_bracket() and leave the rest alone.

To view just the STL change the 0 and 1's in the ifs at the bottom of the file.

OpenScad does not seem to have a search, I did not know x_motor_bracket was
in there somewhere. I never would have found the if(0) at the end of the
file or recognized its significance. Thank you I think I can get something
to work from that.

Yes the editor is very primitive. I always use an external editor and set the Automatic Reload & Compile option so that OpenScad renders when I change the file.

Once you have made your changes you can create single stls with stls.py dibond x_motor_bracket.stl or you can use F6 and save as STL.
