The Design Bay is open.
Design brief — SK-DB-01
A client needs a wall bracket for a loaded shelf. You're the engineer: set every dimension, choose the material, and decide how many screws go where. This is real parametric geometry — the ledger below judges your load capacity, mass and carbon as you work, and when you're done the STL is yours.
Touch any control and this panel explains the engineering behind what just changed.
The Foreman — AI copilot
Don't fancy driving nine sliders? Tell the Foreman what the bracket is for and he'll set the machine himself — watch the sliders move. He runs on Claude, wired to the same parameters and the same physics: a working demonstration of AI integrated into an engineering toolchain.
Foreman here. Tell me the job — "hold a 5 kg shelf of paperbacks, 120 mm deep, cheap and green" — and I'll set the machine. Or ask me why your design flexes.
Print Bay — your part, sliced
This is your exact part from the Design Bay, sliced plane-by-plane and rebuilt as real extrusion toolpaths on a build plate — perimeters and infill as separate features, solid skins top and bottom, hatch direction alternating every layer. Scrub the stack, orbit around it, or press print and watch it grow bead by bead.
*Indicative figures for education, computed live from your geometry: cantilever bending with derated material allowables, ISO-ish material densities, published embodied-carbon factors, and a 6061 billet envelope for the machining comparison. Not certified design data — for that, get in touch.
