Simple module for generate constant width solid (1) based on regular polygons (2). You can choose the number of vertices of the regular polygon, the final with of the solid and a rounding radius. The chosen width kept constant besides other parameters, ie both constant_width_solid(3, 50, 0) and constant_width_solid(3, 50, 10) have the same width.
