This program is a Python-based garden tag generator that uses the CadQuery 3D modeling library to automatically create custom engraved plant tags for a garden. What it does: Reads a list of plants from a CSV file (with columns like plant and category). For each plant, it: Calculates the appropriate tag size based on the name length. Builds a 3D model of a tag with a rectangular stake. Engraves the plant name and an underline onto the top of the tag. Exports the final model to your desired output format like STEP, AMF, 3MF or STL file, sorted into folders based on plant category. Key Features: Automatically adjusts the width of each tag based on the plant name. Engraves the name deeply into the surface for durable marking (useful for 3D printing or machining). Organizes exported STEP files neatly by plant category. Uses a bold, readable font for clear visibility. Use Case: Perfect for gardeners, nurseries, or makers who want to generate a full set of custom garden markers for 3D printing or CNC machining — with minimal manual design work. The included file "full_plant_tags.csv.py" needs to be renamed to "full_plant_tags.csv" before running the script, if you run it as is you'll get roughly 300 different spike models organized by Fruit, Herb or Vegetable, you could even add your own categories and/or plants by modifying the CSV file There are a handful of options at the top of the program so you can customize the tag a bit to fit your style or needs.
