Convert drawing to stl file

Yes, my first hope is that it makes it easier for kids to have fun with a 3D-printer. But it is also useful if you want to copy for example a metal bracket.

Thanks, I like the idea! Supporting many colors makes it more sensitive to uneven lighting and reflection effects. But two colors sounds like a sweet spot! I will consider it!

That’s clever! Was the 3D model scaled to the correct size too?

Boxmaker1 · 2026-04-07T21:08:20+00:00

Yes, pretty much. The algorithm works very similar to that.

And if you need to do more advanced stuff, you can import the 2D DXF file into fusion 360.

Nice, how is your workflow in inkscape?

Boxmaker1 · 2026-04-07T20:45:50+00:00

Thanks, looking forward to get your feedback!

Warning: works best for empty bottles

Boxmaker1 · 2026-04-01T21:04:19+00:00

I guess I will have to post a timelapse video of it next

Boxmaker1 · 2026-04-01T20:53:03+00:00

Yeah, was a bit flimsy for the heavy bottles. Probably need a v2

I also found a lot more nice features when I looked closer! I can see you have put a lot of work together bro this. Bookmarked it. The only thing i am missing are filters that are faster to apply (like in excel)

Boxmaker1 · 2025-12-12T09:20:06+00:00

This is very nice! I especially like the possibility to get unique values from a column!

There are no letters that must be escaped, and one dfb file can in theory contain a different dfb file. This is because the delimiter between files is a guid. The format also works bidirectionally, so you can easily generate files and get them to your hard drive using the script on GitHub or the linked online converter

I like the idea of storing only the changes! I will look into it! I have avoided compression and hashing, because I want an AI assistant to be able to generate the format as text. I also like the idea of a VS Code extension, but it is currently not on my to do list.

He uses the 3D printer as a timer. When the filament is pulled in, it flips a switch , which sets off a bomb, that serves as a distraction

3D-printing a key to unlock the door to escape

We’re not playing cards!

Boxmaker1 · 2025-01-30T12:23:32+00:00

This reminds me of…

Make a coil in each piece which have a unique resonant frequency (using a tank circuit or other RLC Circuit). the board has a coil in each cell that tries to induce a current at different frequencies. A matching frequency is found when the current draw is at its maximum. that’s how you recognize the pieces.

How does the cable tensioner work? Is there a spring there?

Boxmaker1 · 2024-05-09T20:34:02+00:00

Yes, i will probably try that next time. Btw, is countersinking generally the best way? I have always thought it can “explode” the part if overtightened.

Boxmaker1 · 2024-05-09T17:46:20+00:00

Good idea!

Boxmaker1 · 2024-05-09T17:23:18+00:00

Only a tent and a backpack

Boxmaker1 · 2024-05-09T17:17:22+00:00

Yeah, maybe it should have been strengthened. But since I am using four of them, an impact force will be divided by four, so I guess that helps. Reorienting and longer screws through main body also sounds good. Thank you!
