In Portuguese, they indicate that a syllable is stressed and alternate ways to say the vowels. e.g. "país" is stressed in "i" and means "country", while "pais" is stressed in "a" and means &

Hi, thanks for answering! Only the generated .scad would be great! I mean, I see to use cases for that that would be helpful for me: 1. Asking for a base model, download it as .scad and them improve it through OpenSCAD accordingly to my nee
