What #OpenSource design tools (#CAD / #CAM) do you recommend for carving 3D organic designs onto wood?
Examples:
(1) Topographical maps
(2) Piano keys - angled bevels on the black keys
(3) 3D human faceLast year, I was using #FreeCAD, and was disappointed to find out FreeCAD's #CAM tool couldn't handle the angled slopes / black keys on the piano keyboard I designed.
Heard of people using: #Blender + CAM, #DuneCAD, #OpenSCAD and some other tools...

While preparing my Voron Trident 3D printer build, I ran into a problem: colors in STL->GLB conversions look very different depending on lighting and viewing angle. I needed some way to gauge color specifications.
So I built a small tool, colorpie, to test HEX colors on faceted 3D wedges and see how they render interactively.
Post + interactive models:

Seeing as you're making dice that are fighting the current situation in the USA right now, I think this would be up your alley. https://stgiga.github.io/gigaware/TarouijaD120files.zip would be up your alley. It is a 3D model with OpenSCAD for tweaks, of a d120 but instead of the numbers 1-120, it has extended Tarot and extended Ouija as its symbols, via Unicode shenanigans, following this mapping https://www.reddit.com/r/d120Lists/comments/17mr2uv/d120_tarot_and_spirit_board/

The first section of characters is the contents of the Playing Cards block in Unicode, minus Red Joker (white is kept) and Playing Card Back. So that means the 52 cards (jokers included) in an English/American deck of playing cards, plus Tarot's Knight cards, so 56 cards (and these are basically a graphical suit with the value above it, in a 12pt cell), plus the 22 cards in the Major Arcana, with "Fool" as XXII as is done on some decks. That section is rendered as a 12pt card with Roman numerals I through XXII with IX and XI having disambiguation dots. The naming I used for the cards is the alias names Unicode gives the cards. So none of the "The Hanged Man" or the generic numbered-only names that Unicode gives as their official codepoint names. After that is Ouija's 0-9 and uppercase A-Z, using Unicode's Mathematical Monospaced characters (Courier) from Mathematical Alphanumeric Symbols block, in order to fit the 1800s playbill font commonly seen on Ouija boards, also 12pt. Now the next ones are the interesting ones. To represent Yes and No, I used the Thumbs-Up and Thumbs-Down emoji respectively, and the real interesting part is what I did for Hello and Goodbye. For those, I used two characters from the Miscellaneous Technical block, namely the Enter Symbol and the Escape Symbol, both seen on old Mac keyboards. The first one is a diamond with an arrow pointing inwards, and the second one is a circle with an arrow pointing outwards. The metaphor here is that "Hello" is entering a conversation, and "Goodbye" is leaving one, obviously with a spirit. And all this fills ALL 120 slots on a d120, with no empty or duplicate entries. A unique glyph for each side. The only fonts usable for this by the way are Unifont Smooth (bundled) or UnifontEX. No other font, even Unifont itself, has all the characters together, due to the fact that Hello and Goodbye symbols are in Plane 0, meanwhile the rest of the characters are in Plane 1 AND even include emoji, never mind that some fonts do not support the Major Arcana part of the Playing Cards block. So basically, you're stuck with these two forks of GNU Unifont, but UnifontEX is pixel and so is not exactly a fitting theme unless you're a hacker like I am. Plus, by a bout of sheer chance, ALL the characters after vectorization turned out fine (though White Joker's J is too skeletal in the loop), something that related characters (some of the other stuff in the same block as the thumbs up and thumbs down emoji didn't vectorize well) have trouble with. I was very pleasantly surprised that the emoji and the Roman numerals turned out fine. But ultimately this was a feat of engineering I did when I was bored from 2023 to nowadays.
Anyways, what makes this a compelling protest product is that it combines several things that fundamentalist Christians are very prone to hating. It takes Tarot cards and Ouija boards and shoves them onto dice that are literally divisible into an entire set of common and rare TTRPG dice, on top of the shape being a D&D d20 but divided into 6 triangles (putting a d4 on each face and then dividing by 2), a D&D d12 but divided into 10 triangles for each pentagon, as well as being a derivative shape of the d30 and d60. So basically, this "Tarouija" d120 combines multiple things that fundamentalist Christians consider "demonic" into one divination ritual item and thus is a great form of protest against the religious right. For the record I live in California. Hopefully this is interesting. Oh the OpenSCAD file needs the nightly build of OpenSCAD. #dicemaking #dicemaker #dice #d120 #unicode #unifontex #tarotcard #tarotdecks #tarotcards #tarotcardsreading #ouijaboard #ouija #3d #3dp #3dprinting #3dprinter #spiritboard #majorarcana #fuckice #protest #unifont #openscad #scad #3dart #art #tech #technology #code #font #fontdev #fonts #3dmodel #3dmodeling #3dmodels #3dmodeled #computerscience #compsci #boredom #activism #ice -

I made a new controller for the Musical Crystal Cave! This one has very Myst-y vibes and I'm very pleased with how it came out. This is a 100% custom controller that's largely 3D printed (except for all the wood).
The levers use magnetic rotary encoders and connect wirelessly via espnow to a dongle that outputs MIDI CC. I drive the animation of the artwork via TouchDesigner.
CAD was split between Openscad and OnShape.

So I know I am waaaay late to the game..but I just got a 3d printer and discovered #OpenSCAD
Where have I been?
18 lines of code!

So version 1.3 of my filament spool for #3dprinting with some useful updates is now officially released:
https://git.chaotikum.org/derderwish/filament_spoolIt's in use for a few weeks in the #Nbsp of the @chaotikumev now and I think it works fine.
#lasercutting a spool is much faster than printing and it is very storage efficient when disassembled.
Thanks to #openscad it is adjustable, too.

Moin #PhysikEdu,
ich habe endlich mein Isotopentafel-Puzzle fertig modelliert und gedruckt. Damit kann man die Isotope zusammenpuzzelnd und anschließend Zerfallsreihen ermitteln, wobei ein „Zerfallsrahmen“ auch nur auf die Isotope passt, die diesen Zerfall „können“.

I have released version 0.9 of `cq-studio`, my hot-reloading server for using the excellent #YACV viewer to interact with models you build in #CadQuery (or #build123d) with #Python code, programmatically. It lets you edit your model code module(s) in any editor/IDE you like, and the models are re-rendered whenever changes to your files are saved.
https://pypi.org/project/cq-studio/
You can install it with just `pipx install cq-studio`. If you've never used pipx before, it requires a tiny amount of setup to add the programs it installs to your file search PATH environment variable.
CadQuery is an alternative to the perhaps better-known OpenSCAD package. CadQuery uses a more advanced CAD kernel than OpenSCAD, but they both have their uses.

Boy, that #escalated quickly. I'm sure I'm everything wrong, but I've had a fun day messing around with my 3D-model for the #MT32pi controller.
-
Taking my first helpless steps in #3DModelling with #OpenSCAD. This is the simplified and reduced size prototype, but it will end up being a 5.25" bay controlpanel for the #MT32pi with an 128x32 OLED display, two buttons and a rotary encoder on a PCB. Doing #3D as #code is pretty cool.
Why OpenSCAD? I'm a programmer and automation freak by trade, so this approach seemed saner than clicking away in a GUI.
