Newbie wants to know.... is it me or Carbide Create?

[WillAdams (William Adams (Carbide 3D))]

If there is some specific thing which you wish to accomplish programmatically, let me know and I’ll do my best to work it up using METAPOST — I did post a parametric wrench a while back:

Any interest in METAPOST? Need a full set of Carbide 3D-style wrenches?

And now for something really different. For a while now, I’ve been working on using METAPOST for a fancy box project, but in the course of that, I realized that I could pretty easily take any file, set it to view in cm, and then copy the coordinates out of it and multiply them times an input value in mm and get a file which could be rendered at any desired size: \documentclass{standalone} \usepackage{luamplib} \begin{document} \begin{mplibcode} beginfig(1); %filecontents: parameters.txt S=8m…

and need to revisit that at some point.
