Summary

This file allows the user to make custom hex bit holders for parts with variable tool radii. While the hex bit size stays the same, some tools such as hex sockets have variable widths depending on the size of the socket. This design incorporates a recursive function which calculates a new spacing for each individual part, such that there is enough room on the holder to include all of the parts. This design currently only works in 1 dimension for the purpose of spacing the parts. It cannot, at this time, create multiple rows of parts like the original.

Remixes and "I made one" reports are strongly encouraged to help me and everyone else improve our work. If you have any odd experiences with the code, let me know and I might be able to help. I have tried to test this with lots of odd inputs to find issues, but I can't have found everything.

Extra special thanks goes out to the original designer xchg_dot_ca for changing the license on his original work to allow me to publish this remix.
