A robotic arm design is a mechanical device which is designed to replicate the movements and functions of the human arm. It ...

We love and hate OpenSCAD. As programmers, we like describing objects we want to 3D print or otherwise model. As programmers, we hate all the strange things about OpenSCAD that make it not like a ...

The Carmelite Brothers of Wyoming are building their own gothic monastery. To do so, they learn to use tools such as CAD, CAM ...

Film industry concept artist Antonio Niculae began his journey into 3D by learning SketchUp, followed by a number of the best ...

Bézier curves are parametric curves defined by polynomial equations. To work with Béziers in OpenSCAD we need to load BOSL2/std.scad, which includes the extension beziers.scad. Bézier curves vary by ...

One of the shape primitives you'll use most often in your OpenSCAD designs is the cube. Rounding the edges of cube-like objects impacts both the visual appeal and functional aspects of the final ...

Who’s interested in a brand new, from-scratch boundary representation (BREP) kernel? How about one that has no topological naming problem, a web-native parametric CAD front end to play with, ...
