                    Please generate a 2D CAD file in OpenSCAD for old-school telephone

    Creating a detailed and accurate 2D CAD file for an old-school telephone in OpenSCAD involves several steps. Below is a basic example, aiming to provide the overall shape of a classic rotary telephone. For a professional and more detailed design, you would need to refine the shapes and add more details.

    Here's a simple OpenSCAD script for a 2D design of an old-school telephone:

    ```scad
    // 2D Old-school Telephone Shape

    module old_school_telephone() {
        difference() {
            union() {
                // Main body
                rounded_rectangle([140, 80], 10);
                // Handset
                translate([70, 80]) rotate(15) rounded_rectangle([120, 20], 5);
                translate([-50, 90]) rotate(-15) rounded_rectangle([120, 20], 5);
                // Rotary dial
                translate([70, 40]) circle(20);
                translate([70, 40]) circle(10);
            }
            // Dial holes
            for (i = [0:9]) {
                rotate(i*36) translate([70, 40]) translate([27, 0]) circle(4);
            }
        }
    }

    module rounded_rectangle(size, radius) {
        hull() {
            translate([radius, radius]) circle(radius);
            translate([size[0] - radius, radius]) circle(radius);
            translate([radius, size[1] - radius]) circle(radius);
            translate([size[0] - radius, size[1] - radius]) circle(radius);
        }
    }

    // Draw the old-school telephone
    old_school_telephone();
    ```

    ### Explanation of the Code:
    1. **Module Definition (`old_school_telephone`)**:
       - This module combines various shapes to represent an old-school telephone.
    2. **Main Body**:
       - A `rounded_rectangle` is used to create the main body of the telephone.
    3. **Handset**:
       - Two rectangles with rounded corners are translated and rotated to resemble the handset on top of the telephone.
    4. **Rotary Dial**:
       - Circles are used to create the rotary dial, and smaller circles are subtracted to form the visible holes.
    5. **Subtractive Features**:
       - A `difference` operation is used to subtract various smaller circles representing the number holes on the rotary dial.
    6. **Helper Function (`rounded_rectangle`)**:
       - A helper function to draw rectangles with rounded corners using the hull operation, providing a smoother appearance.

    Save the above code into a file with the `.scad` extension, and you can open it using OpenSCAD to view and further refine the design according to your specifications.
