- **Customizable**: Configurable dimensions based on board square size
- **Print-friendly**: Designed for easy 3D printing with minimal support

## Requirements

- [OpenSCAD](https://openscad.org/) for viewing and modifying the design
- 3D printer capable of printing PLA/PETG/ABS materials
- Recommended print settings: 0.2mm layer height, 15% infill

## Usage

### Viewing the Model

1. Install OpenSCAD
2. Open `parts.scad` in OpenSCAD
3. Press F5 to preview or F6 to render

### Printing

The design generates four different types of pieces:
- **Row 1**: Tube holes (negative space for creating molds)
