Parametric True-Weave Elliptical Basket It is notoriously difficult to find high-quality woven basket designs—often they look like a single solid block, or they aren't the right dimensions for your specific space and resizing can be disastrous. This project isn't about downloading a static file; it’s about turning your printer into a digital basket weaver instead of forcing a fixed shape out of a nozzle. Description Stop printing "basket-shaped" blocks and start weaving. This parametric generator uses OpenSCAD math to simulate a traditional over-under weave pattern across a customizable elliptical footprint. Whether you need a small organizer or a wide fruit bowl, the "weaver" recalculates the geometry from scratch based on your dimensions. The result is a model that captures the organic flow of wicker while utilizing FDM-specific optimizations to maintain structural integrity. Technical Design Decisions To improve reliability and printability without supports, several core optimizatio
