I had some good results using CadQuery [1] with CQ-editor [2] for visualization driven by Claude Code enhanced by a cadquery-llm-skill [3]. I didn't make anything too complicated, just cases for various ESP32 projects I am tinkering with, but that was very easy just describing what I want and iterating and refining until I am satisfied. It was much easier than doing it manually in FreeCAD and more dynamic as the changes were cheap and not tedious to do.

Hah, that is actually what I need right now and I also wanted to 3d print it :D

Shortly after

is interesting. When did it ask for the dimensions?
Maybe they are referencing the sliders below to tweak the parameters?

Only if you have a cupertino-made toaster that is.
which part of this is the innovation?
Looks cool.
I have had issues with language CAD stuff before, often not performing as advertised and would love to tinker with it.
And whats great here is that I cant test the web version, and because its for mac silicon only, I also cant test the local version.
So Kudos? I guess?

How does physics "check the work"? Do you run a physics engine? Do you make it in reality and do physical tests? What the fuck?
Gets this slop away from me.
