"Learning what it means to be secure in a digital world."
This article is in response to all the requests I have seen on Facebook, asking how to easily calculate the radius of a curved Lithophane created using http://3dp.rocks/lithophane/ . This information can then be used to create custom enclosures. My first attempts at making this calculation consisted of printing the curved Litho and then measuring the straight-line distance between the two curved ends, called a chord. Because I was creating Litho’s with a ninety-degree angle is simplified the calculation gre
There is a problem with this method of calculating the radius, you must print the curved litho before designing the enclosure. Plus making accurate measurements can be a pain in the proverbial butt. After much though I believe I have figured out a way to calculate the necessary information to create the enclosure without printing the Litho first.
