ScratchCAD 3D | Alpha ======================================= Have you ever wanted to 3D print something extremely basic, with no knowledge of 3D printing or CAD whatsoever? Well, now you can! *Remix if you find the Easter Eggs...* Steps: Step 1) Select if you want to draw a square or a triangle by clicking on the button on the right of the screen. Then, click on the large grey square and drag the mouse outwards to create your shape! The dimensions, (width and length), of the shape will be shown in cm. Step 2) Let go of the mouse. You will be asked how much to extrude by, and this will be the height of the print, so enter a number from 1 to 50. Then, click done. Step 3) You will see a bunch of variables and settings now. You can ignore them, and print straight away, or you can modify some settings for your print. The function of the setting is shown next the variable, and these settings will be reset to default once you click the green flag. Step 4) Once you have finished, click print. The 3D printer will be drawn, and once that is done, it will begin to draw your print! Click pause/play, to pause and play (top right), and click stop, (top, second to right) to cancel, and go back to the drawing board! As of update 1.5.3a, once the print has finished, a button will pop up in the top left corner. This is the save button! Click it and follow the instructions to save it to my 3D CAD project. Step 5) Confetti!!! ❒ Have any suggestions or feedback, or have you found a glitch? Tell me in the comments!

Credit to for the idea 1.2.1a - 7/1/20 - Fixed bug where you won't randomly start off with a polyalchemy elixir filament 1.3.0a - 7/1/20 - Added triangles! They are a work in progress however, and they will need to be further updated. Minor bug fixes regarding floor and roof print structure, and updated the 3D printing screen to look more 3D! 1.3.1a Alpha - 7/1/20 - Added nightshade colour as its own material, (temporarily) and fixed some bugs! 1.3.2a Alpha - 8/1/20 - Made nightshade filament a bit more realistic 1.3.3a - 9/1/20 - New thumbnail! It looks way better now! 1.4.0a - 9/1/20 - Major graphics update! Updated thumbnail and added a new font for almost all text in the project 1.4.1a - 10/1/20 - Button graphics vastly improved, and proper sliders should be added in the next update! 1.4.2a - 11/1/20 - Proper sliders added, (replacing variable sliders, on the settings slide) and more graphics changes throughout the project 1.4.3a - 11/1/20 - Improved background 1.4.4a - 11/1/20 - Renamed as ScratchCAD 3D instead of 3D Printer and further improved background, as well as changed size of numbers showing size of shape by -25% 1.4.5a - 12/1/20 - Fixed bug where you sliders don't appear after clicking reprint button 1.4.6a - 14/1/20 - Small speed update 1.5.0a - 28/1/20 - Added more sound effects for navigating 'help'.

Also improved 'help' button graphics 1.5.1aa - 28/1/20 - Fixed confetti glitch where confetti appears on the draw screen. 1.5.2a - 8/3/20 - Fixed glitch where you can't change the shape after re-running the project. 1.5.2.1a - 6/4/20 - New thumbnail - looks so good! 1.5.2.2a - 7/4/20 - Redesigned thumbnail by 1.5.3a - 29/4/20 - Prints can now be saved to my 3D CAD project via a code, and various sound effect bugs resolved. 1.5.3.1a - 29/4/20 - Fixed glitch where confetti music... doesn't stop... 1.5.3.2a - 30/4/20 - Shaded in settings button doesn't appear on the printing screen anymore. 1.5.3.3a - 30/4/20 - Extruder now moves more realistically. The music and the sound of the extruder moving is now properly affected by the mute button after rerunning the project. 1.5.4a - 29/6/20 - The gcode1 export code now saves colour. It involved using an HSV to RGB translator, which I got from OfArithmetic All art and code by me - Redesigned thumbnail by Music and sound effects from Scratch and Sound Bible: http://soundbible.com/ Thanks to for the Polyalchemy Elixir filament suggestion for HSV to RGB translator. The materials! ◉ PLA = Polylactic acid: pretty cheap & mediocre filament, although it comes in lots of colours! ◉ ABS = Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene: the plastic used to make Lego! Better quality than PLA. ◉ Nyl = Nylon: a strong and flexible filament. ◉ Pol = Poly-alchemy Elixir PLA: it's shiny! ◉ W PLA = Wooden PLA; made with sawdust and PLA. Material no. 34 has a special texture, so try it out! Achievements: 10 likes - 7/1/20 - Woohoo!
