Description
I am just learning about OpenSCAD (my 1st day with it today). I was thinking a great test piece to print out when I get and assemble my MakerBot kit in a month, would be a ruler sized to the stage limits. The large marks should be centimeters and the smaller marks millimeters. The minimum resolution I used was 0.2 mm. Sorry but I do not know yet how to put letters or numbers on it yet.
I can not wait to test this print. I expect (if it works) I will go around the house with it to eyeball things I could print out. Also, it will be good since I can never find a ruler or straight edge when I need it.

You could put numbers on it with my thing :)
Thank you. I uploaded the scad file. It is pretty simple (just joining rectangles). If someone could try to print it and upload the picture, that would be great!
This would be a good thing to embed into machines.
Can you post the OpenSCAD source?
