Comment on Text2CAD: Generating sequential cad designs from text promptsparent

Comments

anything that gets me through the first 98% is welcome :)

Only if the result of the LLM is a good, well-architected parametric CAD model you can adjust, right?

that seems like a little much to expect from an LLM; the average CAD file in my experience has not been not well-architected :)

as long as the output is something my manufacturer can understand (downloadable mesh: STL/STEP/etc (they dont take links)), the tool did its job for me

i would probably start the final model from scratch no matter what the output was, so i can match my chosen manufacturer's tolerances/design rules/optimizations, and to give breathing room for my quirks/workflow (i like to design subtractively, some people design additively)
