UPDATED: 03/06/2013 Added Help file for creating fonts.
I have looked everywhere for an easy way to write on my 3d objects. Everything I could find was hard to manipulate, so I decided to give it a shot myself. Hope you like this as much as I do. I'll try to answer any questions you have.

write.scad Routines:
write()
writecube()
writesphere()
writecylinder()
writecircle()

Fonts:
letters.dxf (change in write.scad)
