Pd Message Box (Type 1)

Like http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:8188 this was designed for the pd-LAunch, the kick-off of a Los Angeles based patching circle (for patching languages like Pure Data and Max/MSP). We flirted with the idea of having name badges for participants, and I decided to make a customizable Pd message box for it. The OpenSCAD script and STL are set to put "bang". "bang" is a special Pd message that makes thing go. The picture is of some "pd-la" messages - pd-la is the name of our patching circle. You can change the message to say other things. It won't automatically resize the box for longer messages yet, but I'm working on that.

Also, some fine details (like the 'a') don't show up for our MakerBot. The size of the text can be tweaked to help with it, though it is plenty readable this way.

I'm calling this type 1 because there are two other variations that I've made and are on their way. This was the best hand-out for our event.
