OpenSCAD User Manual/DXF Extrusion

With the import() and extrusion modules it is possible to convert 2D objects read from DXF files to 3D objects. See also 2D to 3D Extrusion.

Example of linear extrusion of a 2D object imported from a DXF file.

linear_extrude(height = fanwidth, center = true, convexity = 10)
   import (file = "example009.dxf", layer = "fan_top");

Example of rotational extrusion of a 2D object imported from a DXF file.

rotate_extrude(convexity = 10)
   import (file = "example009.dxf", layer = "fan_side", origin = fan_side_center);
