I created a highly configurable calendar 3D model using OpenSCAD. This project uses Zeller’s Congruence to automatically adjust the calendar layout for any year. Just change the year in the configurator, and the model updates accordingly.
The link contains a little more of the backstory and the downloadable model from a 3rd-party site, additionally the full source code is included in the post.
Some highlights:
- Implemented date calculations entirely in OpenSCAD (with no built-in date support, which was challenging but fun). - Customizable layout, multi-material printing support, and translation for all text elements. - Configurable holes for magnets/screws to mount on a fridge or wall. - Utilizes JustinSDK/dotSCAD and davidson16807/relativity.scad for string manipulation. - Correctly takes into account leap years.
Would love to hear your feedback. Thanks for checking it out!
