Description
Parametric timing belt tooth profile-based SCAD scripts for generating belt cogs and dogs to be incorporated in your motion control designs.
Dogs are like clamps - they keep the belt in one place relative to the part they are placed on. I use them on my x carriage - no fasteners required!
The cog module makes a cog primative - add features as you like!
Presently limited to only T5 and T2.5 as those are the only belts I have to test with. Please add to the profile library!

Instructions
Hopefully the code is clear enough. I'd appreciate feedback on how to do some of this better. Keeping things 2-manifold proved a challenge and I'd appreciate knowing if anyone has figured out how to build point arrays dynamically or concatenate point arrays in OpenSCAD.
