6bf49a167c Generate single sketch for cover sheet instead of one for each part.
- cvr.py (outline_cad): accept sketch as argument instead of creating a
  new one
- cvr.py (outline_gnuplot): added dummy sketch argument
- cvr.py (closed_outline, open_outlineoutline, label): pass sketch
  argument

64ae378bf5 Draw counterweight shape also on cover.
- cvr.py: run shape.make_base to draw counterweight shape
- cvr.py (label): parametrized position and size of label
- cvr.py (label): counterweight outline collided with label; shrink
  label and move it to an unoccupied area

7da2d7ce52 Move make_base from cw.py to new module shape.py, to allow sharing
with cvr.py

709838ab46 Change wood size for 4th mold. Improved documentation.
- cw.py: switch from 1/2"x2" wood to 1"x3"
- README: explain what we need to protect against
- README: added more process details
- README: merged g2gp pass into "doit"
- doit: script for final machine-specific alignment and translation

e910ea067e Improved the mold for better yield.
- cw.py: added another air escape for remaining corner with occasional air
  pockets
- cw.py: inlets terminate in a cylinder, to allow for piece tolerances (the
  real piece I use is in fact a bit smaller than I tell HeeksCAD, so that
  HeeksCAD flattens the entire surface)
- cw.py: commented the parameters for inlets and escapes

fcd83689fa Added a cover sheet to separate counterweight and main PCB.
- README: describe mechanical stacking and the function of the various
  protective layers
- cvr.py: model of the cover sheet, with gnuplot and HeeksCAD output

6dcaa390b4 Various adjustments after trying real prototype:
- "tongue" of battery lid hits the counterweight. Open a 1.5 mm deep bay for
  it.
- inclined area was too steep. Make it reach the upper plateau 0.5 mm later.
- run protrusions on "podium" at the battery 0.5 mm closer to the battery
- extend left "ear" 0.5 mm into available space
