Drehkalender

A multi-lingual two tone flip calendar based on O.T. Vinta’s flip calendar.

That thing is a great idea, but i had some problems with it.

• The fulcrums are desigend with not enough clearance for my taste
• I can’t stand the ALL CAPS shouty month names.
• Also, there was no German version ready
• I like more contrast for the text
• And the “TURN SLOWLY” and “CHANGE MONTH” will be annoying after a month or two.

So, the changes:

• I added extra clearance to the fulcrums
• The month text has been separated into a set of cards to be put into a month card carrier. There are several versions ready
  • English
  • German
  • Euro-Arabic numbers
  • Roman numbers
  • You can add other languages by changing the text in Monatskarten.scad in OpenSCAD and rendering it. Make sure you use a font you have.
• The English and German texts use lower case letters.
• The day and month cards are for two (or three) tone printing.
• While there are »Monat drehen« and »langsam drehen« cards, i also added some random emoji to fill the backs of the extra day cards. You can change these, too, to taste. Use Tagestafel.scad and OpenSCAD. I found the “Symbola” font useful for this.
