What shade are we making
A look sets the shape and pattern — you can tweak everything next. The preview shows the shade with the lamp on.
A new shape within sensible limits: no overhangs steeper than 45°, bed and walls checked. How you print (wall, bottom, mount) stays the same.
One number — one shape: share it or come back to the shape later.
Start from a look and tweak it — every one is checked to print without supports.
The model is built in your browser. Only setting codes (for statistics) and your sign-in for the download reach the server; the shade's parameters are stored on the server only if you press “Save project”.
