A browser-based tool that turns 3D models into printable joint assemblies made from straws, sticks, skewers, or toothpicks.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-23 issue.

Why it surfaced

Upload an STL or use the demo object, tune coarseness and fidelity, and the tool generates printable node designs, build instructions, STL files, member lists, and a node bill of materials. Its unusually specific constraints—even accounting for straw bore diameters, connector tolerances, and cut lengths—make this feel like a real workshop instrument rather than a generic 3D utility.
