Captive Bearing Flange

This is what is generated from captive_bearing_flange();.

Customizing captive_bearing_flange with OpenSCAD parameters

captive_bearing_flange captures a ball bearing in a printable housing and bolts it onto the prpol grid. The optional bore body fills the inside of the bearing with a shaft-ready hub. Here it is called with every parameter spelled out:

captive_bearing_flange( bearing_outer_diameter = 16.0, bearing_inner_diameter = 8.0, bearing_thickness = 5.04, mount_style = "center", do_bore_body = true, bore_body_hole_diameter = global_default_hole_diameter, echo_parameters = true );

bearing_outer_diameter	outer diameter of the bearing in mm (default 16.0).
bearing_inner_diameter	bore diameter of the bearing in mm (default 8.0).
bearing_thickness	bearing thickness in mm (default 5.04).
mount_style	"center" (default) puts one mount hole on each side of the bearing, "end" puts both mount holes on the same side.
do_bore_body	when true (default), generates the spool-shaped body that fits inside the bearing. Set to false for the flange alone.
bore_body_hole_diameter	the through-hole in the bore body in mm (default global_default_hole_diameter).
echo_parameters	when true (default), the OpenSCAD console echoes the full parameter list when you preview or render the module.

If you leave a parameter out of the module call, that parameter will just have the default value. For example, these are all valid module calls:

captive_bearing_flange(); captive_bearing_flange(mount_style = "end"); captive_bearing_flange(do_bore_body = false); captive_bearing_flange( bearing_outer_diameter = 22, bearing_inner_diameter = 8, bearing_thickness = 7 );
