It’s honestly pretty powerful, you can even import libraries from other users. A good example I’ve found is the board game inserts that user “js500” is uploading on Printables. He has his own library with things like rounded cubes, finger holes and whatnot, then uses that to create inserts for different games. Here’s an example: https://www.printables.com/model/1192543-white-castle-with-matcha-insert-organizer-also-fit
(Make sure to also download the library file included)

IcedRaktajino@startrek.website 1 week agoIf you have any coding experience, I recommend giving OpenSCAD
That’s certainly an interesting way to go about it lol. That said, I read through the tutorial and honestly I’m gonna give it a try. The syntax doesn’t look too awful and doing it in code seems like it would allow for easy precision and also eliminates having to learn the UI of FreeCAD which I agree is absolutely horrendous.
Thanks.

Also, if you’re making raspberry pi enclosures as I think I read in the comments, there is this library that has pre-modeled rpis to use as a reference: https://github.com/nophead/NopSCADlib

Nice. A lot more than RPis, too.
This is actually for a Banana Pi but it’s in the Pi Zero form factor so should be easy to modify.
