🎉Exciting news!
CadQuery — the powerful Python-based parametric 3D CAD software — now partners with PCBWay.
🤗You can now export your design directly as a STEP file and send it straight to our instant quoting page.
🤓Watch the demo here: youtube.com/watch?v=AuPr7cgE…
CadQuery developer Adam will be giving a talk at FOSDEM 2025 about CadQuery's new free function API.

Good luck @fosdem
Come see @FreeCADNews and friends at the entrance to Building K at #FOSDEM, with a shout-out to our infrastructure sponsors at @digitalocean
I updated my CadQuery collection on Printables.com with all the new CadQuery designs that I could find. A design has to include the source code to be included. #CadQuery #Python #CAD

Mmmm, future tech.
I got these cool sodium ion batteries in 18650 size for about $1.50/piece. Rated at 1300mAh and 3.90Wh. Nominal voltage of 3.0v. Extremely cold resistant. No thermal runaway. Far more sustainable. Excited to design using salt-tek, lol.
Great post by Pen-Yuan Hsing about his experience using a 3D scanner to enable open hardware collaboration across the Atlantic Ocean.

Replying to @wrightjmf @OSEGermany
Thx for sharing this update @wrightjmf I'm really looking forward to this! Let me know if I can help, also in the context of #OpenSourceHardware or #OTFN and @OSEGermany community or beyond with implementing nimble as a usecase for @intertwilight etc (might be a follow-up)
