  Trying out V2 stuff... pin = center({axes:[true,true,false]}, cylinder({startRadius: 4.5, endRadius: 4.5, height: 38})) produces the same object in the same place as: pin = cylinder({startRadius: 4.5, endRadius: 4.5, height: 38}) I would have expected the first one to be centered on X/Y and sitting on the Z plane. Am I missing something? Also, do I have to always define 'startRadius' and 'endRadius' for a cylinder? I would think there would be a 'radius'. Maybe I'm just lazy...

  Thank you. I will try something similar, it just needs to add a parameter to choose a design number, if the table of random values doesn't have values for this number they are randomly feeded, else they are used for the rendering. Such "mechanism" could be handy for designs using both random values and more than one viewing mode.

  It's official! V2 includes hull for 3D geometries, as well as 2D geometries. This has been long overdue, and one of the most requested features over the past few years. Big thanks to @jallwine and @hg42 for the initial V1 versions. Example of hull for 3D geometories Example of hull_chain for 3D geometries

  Valine Zeigler Greetings Everyone! What video or website do you suggest for a total JSCAD beginner. Specifically, 5 middle schoolers were challenged to create ancient Egyptian artifacts using jscad. How do you suggest we begin? Thank you for any references. Valine one comment 1 no plus ones no shares Shared publicly Valine Zeigler Gilbert, Thank you so much. You were so helpful that I found Tinkercad. After watching your video I realized that jscad may be the next step for those who want to dive deeper after learning the basics. Have a great day!
