Refactor nut to allow hex nut #61

Closed amadeuspzs closed 1 year ago

Currently you can modify https://github.com/adrianschlatter/threadlib/blob/d8c8384988c247c764ad47c504e5bbee5d55fc23/threadlib.scad#L60 to set $fn=6 to obtain a hex nut:

However, you don't want to pass fn=6 into the nut module otherwise the resolution of the thread will be affected.

Can we refactor the nut module to allow for hex nuts?

How would you want to refactor nut(...)?
