Customizable Hirth Joint (vertex version) (library) DEPRECATED

This is DEPRECATED in favor of

Just published for others to see what's not working so well.
Unfortunately I can't remember the exact details regarding the problems with this oldest attempt.

This is a trapezoidal Hirt-Joint generator.

usage:
– either use customizer (thingiverse)
– or use it as a library like such:
hirth(
period_number,
flank_angle,
base_hight,
vertex_radius,
[cutround_diameter|default=0...do_not_cut_round],
[bore_radius|default=0...no_bore],
[vertical_stretching_factor|default=1],
[colormarked_vertices|default=false]);

Note: vertical scaling changes the flank angles.

Finishing & publishing motivated by: 
http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:370976
“Hirth Joint (Angle Adjustment Discs)”
Note that the design there is not really a Hirth joint. Enforcing Constant depth across radius leads to these weirdly twisting non-planar surfaces that diverge to impossibly narrow vertical lamellas at zero radius.

Other versions

Use this one, it's the newest one.

There's another by now also DEPRECATED followup that uses boolean operations:
A supposedly improved version relative to this one.
