I tried a couple of prompts and never got anything usable.
Quite surprised that:
>Create a gridfinity storage unit with dividers
failed so badly (it created a vertically oriented wall-mount type thing with two extraneous recesses at the top)
The thing is, OpenSCAD is dead simple for things which can be modeled using cubes, cylinders, and spheres (and mathematical transformations/positioning of such components) --- that's the great thing.
The awful thing is one's ability to model in OpenSCAD is strongly limited by one's fluency with mathematics (and esp. trigonometry) --- if this tool could help with that latter aspect it would be far more interesting to me (but I'm obviously not the target audience).
i made the same experience. I tried to get a simple wall-mounted headphone holder. and both parametric and creative mode gave me a random thing. i guess i could have hung my headphones, but i had no way of really customizing it.
it would be nice to be able to point on the model what should be changed. or to sketch a first draft. or to have the LLM to ask for clarifications to make the final model be more aligned with my needs
