Some weeks back I got a little manic and decided to solve the general polyomino counting problem. I'm still hammering out the details on that but
along the way I printed up a set of pentominoes to putter around with, which is more than I usually have to show for this sort of thing
The shape file is designed around quarter-inch grid paper and includes both reflections of the chiral ones:

I need to add, the source files depend on the BOSL package:
https://github.com/revarbat/BOSL
This must be downloaded to OpenSCAD's library folder, which can be located by clicking the File menu, then "Show Library Folder".
I found a rectangular arrangement of the 18 one-sided pentominoes, which takes up less bed space and I'd expect to print faster, though I haven't
actually test printed them yet
