Green eggs and SCAD!
In observance of the upcoming holiday and Dr Seuss' just-passed 107th birthday (2011-03-02), here are a couple virtual colored eggs (no more PAAS stained fingers!):

This is yet another example of coloring and animating with OpenSCAD. You can also tweak the file to print out the various parts in different colored plastic and assemble.

Instructions
After downloading egg.scad, you'll need a couple other files for the full effect:
* visibonecolors.scad: thingiverse.com/thing:6717
* MakerbotM_fixed.stl: part of this thing
1. Edit egg.scad to point to local copies of visibonecolors.scad and MakerbotM_fixed.stl
2. Change colors if you're a Dr Seuss or green hater. ;)
visibonecolorshelp(); and visibone.com/colorlab/big.html are helpful resources.
3. Select "View > Animate" and enter 6 FPS and 30 steps (old machine, ya heard). Alternately, you can select "Design > Compile" to see the colors without animation.
Go!
