Open cad/lightbox.scad in OpenSCAD to inspect or export the current parametric model.
The latest production-candidate render is renders/nubble-concept.png; the editable Blender
scene is renders/nubble-concept.blend. The release print set and physical assembly notes are
in docs/production-build.md.
For new scenes, follow the landscape photo workflow. It defines the AI background-fill, source-faithful silhouette, SVG, print-validation, and off-axis display-alignment process.
The first three-layer example is documented in the Nubble source run.
Its exported meshes are in renders/stl/nubble-*.stl, with the corresponding actual-STL
Blender render at renders/nubble-concept.png.
- Keep the project understandable and easy to pick up.
- Record important product and technical decisions in
docs/. - Prefer small, reviewable changes with clear commit messages.
