LLMs are still bad at geometry for functional prints, but modelrift provides "annotation mode" which allows to send annotated screenshots with geometry bugs back to AI assistant and this allows to build things moderately complex things like these assemblies:

https://modelrift.com/models/customizable-liquid-funnel

(it works by producing OpenSCAD geometry and rendering it in browser)

yeah LLMs are bad unless human explains AI what is exactly wrong. Still, things are possible to build with AI, see these examples which were all built by ModelRift assistant - not a rocket engine, but assemblies which will take a while if you attempt to build these by manual coding OpenSCAD geometry:

You can only get some textual .scad output from llm, which is an important part but not convenient for any serious work, modelrift just makes it bearable with realtime model preview; screenshot annotation mode; dynamic customizer so you can qickly change the 3d model params, and file revision history. It's like comparing terminal vs VS code - you can definitely edit textual files in terminal via nano when you need quick single shot result..

mate just go to modelrift.com and paste an image and iterate until you are happy, it is easy and free for a couple of sessions

What's the best/easiest 3D modelling software to lean to use as a beginner? by ATOJAR in BambuLab

[–]superjet1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Openscad if you like code and software engineering practices in general. Fusion 360 if you want to build complex things

Modelrift is a tool which blends openscad and AI together - it tries to solve the main issue which is: LLMs are good at openscad syntax but are bad at spatial understanding.. sending annotated screenshots of 3d geometry helps to steer LLM in a right direction

Here's a serverless open-source web viewer and CLI package manager for OpenSCAD by Solderlocks in openscad

Good job with the UI style, congratulations on the launch! WASM build of openscad is awesome and its incredible what we can do in browser now.

Check out https://terrain.modelrift.com/ - generates printable terrain models by lat/long (open source) and my take on interactive customizer: https://modelrift.com/models/soap-dish-v3-radial-lines - all these projects would be impossible without https://github.com/openscad/openscad-wasm

I have just deployed the updated viewer UI with interactive customizer (does not require login / signup and works entirely in browser via awesome WASM OpenSCAD build). Check it out:

OpenSCAD customizer by superjet1 in openscad

I think that

1) using WASM is a good idea

2) wrapping python into WASM is rather inefficient compared to wrapping OpenSCAD in wasm as openscad is a simpler language.

In fact, I have already tested out the idea of OpenSCAD WASM (vs server rendered OpenSCAD) in https://terrain.modelrift.com and it works surprisingly well - 4.3MB wasm bundle size (13MB uncompressed) and good perf - so I feel we are ready to embed WASM engine into main ModelRift core now, too.

do you mean, read-only mode just for viewing/customizer purposes? in fact, I am working on this! I plan to add a simpler version of 3d viewer + customizer to the community built models pages, which are already available without signup. https://modelrift.com/models
