Source: [https://github.com/obzerving/Extruderz](https://github.com/obzerving/Extruderz) Inkscape extension that generates paper model of an extruded shape Given a closed path of straight lines, this program generates a paper model of (1) another copy of the closed path; (2) an extrusion (or more if it exceeds the maximum length) represented by a strip with tabs and score lines; and (3) strips for covering the tabbed strips. See the file [How\_to\_use\_extruder.pdf](https://github.com/obzerving/Extruderz/blob/main/How_to_use_extruder.pdf) for details. [Inkscape 1.1 Papercraft Extruder Extension from Installation to Design Space](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lTKPwi4G5_s) is a video tutorial on using the extension. ## Draw some polygon (closed polyline) [![grafik.png](https://wiki.stadtfabrikanten.org/uploads/images/gallery/2025-05/scaled-1680-/vl2bmmckV2tEUSbG-grafik.png)](https://wiki.stadtfabrikanten.org/uploads/images/gallery/2025-05/vl2bmmckV2tEUSbG-grafik.png) ## Run the extension [![grafik.png](https://wiki.stadtfabrikanten.org/uploads/images/gallery/2025-05/scaled-1680-/LH8C4AYVqQuO8j59-grafik.png)](https://wiki.stadtfabrikanten.org/uploads/images/gallery/2025-05/LH8C4AYVqQuO8j59-grafik.png) ## Get the result [![grafik.png](https://wiki.stadtfabrikanten.org/uploads/images/gallery/2025-05/scaled-1680-/8xfvDyAXc5BHY7nS-grafik.png)](https://wiki.stadtfabrikanten.org/uploads/images/gallery/2025-05/8xfvDyAXc5BHY7nS-grafik.png) See also - [Unwind Paths](https://wiki.stadtfabrikanten.org/books/fablab-chemnitz/page/unwind-paths "Unwind Paths") - [Tab Generator](https://wiki.stadtfabrikanten.org/books/fablab-chemnitz-boxespapercraft/page/tab-generator "Tab Generator") - [Collar](https://wiki.stadtfabrikanten.org/books/fablab-chemnitz-boxespapercraft/page/collar "Collar")
