Damon Miller has a clever idea, rather than designing objects in CAD-space from geometric primitives, why not build them digitally just like you would in the real world. Using digital lathes, drills, and chisels to warp and mold the basic solids given you in a digital space, then have it produce instructions to replicate the process.
The tool is at an early stage, but don’t let the low-fidelity distract you—the possibilities of this concept are endless. See a demo in the video above. How many times have you wished you could just chisel a chunk out of a meticulously built volume, only to be thwarted by clouds of control points?
