Purpose
------
Whose turn it to take out to do the thing today? Whether the thing is leading-the-meeting or taking-out-the-trash, it can be hard to remember whose turn it is to do a low-saliency task. This little device makes it easy to remember, and it's durable enough to knock around in my backpack while I move from desk to desk.
Parametric CAD Model

This is an OpenSCAD design, and it's set up to be easy for you to put your own text on it. In my case, it's the names of my team members - but it could be anything that you use on a rotating basis.
I found that curved edges print best for something like this (I print it standing up), but curved edges taked longer to render in OpenSCAD. I've set the $fn to something that has a nice balance between rendering-effort and render-quality on my gaming PC (2023), but you may want to adjust this depending on where you need that quality/speed to be. In this design, $fn is a parameter you should tune just like any other.
