Adding additional functionality the Openscad template is fairly simple, first you set up the options you want for the customizer menu:
The menu will be added to the customizer:
Then you will need to add new module for creating the torus:
And then add a call to the torus module in the "all modules" module:
Now you can make a Torus:
I'm going to use the new Torus function to make a mold for making o-rings out of silicone, first I will make a circle:
Next I'm going to put each module call on it's own line, comment out the modules I want to use for the difference command and use them in difference():
What this does is it allows me to call specific modules and use the difference() instruction with them, which ever one is first will have the others subtracted from it:
Now the Torus is subtracted from the circle, and I will add a cylinder for a cone shaped fill point:
Then I can adjust things on the fly if necessary:
