# archimedean_spiral_extrude
|
|
|
|
Extrudes a 2D shape along the path of an archimedean spiral.
|
|
|
|
When using this module, you should use points to represent the 2D shape. If your 2D shape is not solid, indexes of triangles are required. See [sweep](https://openhome.cc/eGossip/OpenSCAD/lib3x-sweep.html) for details.
|
|
|
|
## Parameters
|
|
|
|
- `shape_pts` : A list of points represent a shape. See the example below.
|
|
- `arm_distance`, `init_angle`, `point_distance`, `num_of_points` and `rt_dir` : See [archimedean_spiral](https://openhome.cc/eGossip/OpenSCAD/lib3x-archimedean_spiral.html) for details.
|
|
- `twist` : The number of degrees of through which the shape is extruded.
|
|
- `scale` : Scales the 2D shape by this value over the length of the extrusion. Scale can be a scalar or a vector.
|
|
- `triangles` : `"SOLID"` (default), `"HOLLOW"` or user-defined indexes. See [sweep](https://openhome.cc/eGossip/OpenSCAD/lib3x-sweep.html) for details.
