    Refused to design a dragon dildo :(

      Dang it. Now what am I going to use for my D&D campaign?

    Seems similar to https://nurb.dev/ which can run entirely local.

    It's a nice demo and appreciate the guides on what won't work well. Also pretty nice to be able to try it out anonymously without having to sign in.

    It'd be nice to have some info on how it's substantially different from something like https://github.com/earthtojake/text-to-cad (besides from being hosted). Is there a 'document' format you're working with besides from being able to export to stl? Can we download that / continue our work with another editor if we need to make updates? I guess how far into production parts is this project aiming to go?

    This is really cool. I'm interested in getting into 3d printing parts to help with my wood working but I can't find the time to get productive in CAD software. Something like this feels like it might tip the balance into having a 3d printer actually save me time instead of becoming another black hole of tinkering time.

    Oh wow. I ran FreeCAD today to design a little block with 2 holes to 3D print - just a little spacer.

    This did in in 2 messages, I'm impressed.

    I'll like to extend my compliments to the creator (is it op?). Generated a 17*17 MURA mask within 3 messages.

    Pretty impressive demo. Though I’m not looking forward to even more slop models to go through in 3d print catalogs such as makerworld
