Drawing requirements
You do not need a complete engineering drawing to start. Clear views and dimensions make the reconstruction more accurate; whatever is missing becomes a specific question, and no measurement is ever guessed from the size of a picture.
What makes it more accurate
- Dimensions and units where available — written callouts are read as stated.
- Multiple views or sections when they reveal hidden geometry.
- Hole sizes, wall thicknesses and the other features that matter to the part.
- Additional views when we ask for clarification.
Accepted files: PNG, JPG, WebP or PDF, up to 12 MB.
How clarification works
- Every dimension we read is shown to you with where it came from, before anything is built.
- A dimension the drawing does not state is left blank and asked for by name. There are no hidden defaults.
- You correct the interpretation; the model is then generated from the values you confirmed and checked against them.
- Your answers stay with the project.
What the automatic reconstruction covers today
Right now the automatic path builds a single flat rectangular plate of constant thickness, optionally with four through-holes of one diameter on a rectangular pattern, and optionally with the four outer vertical corners filleted to one radius. Reconstruction of other drawings is being added; until then, a drawing with a feature beyond that is kept, and the project tells you which feature it is — it is never approximated with a different shape.
- Builds automatically
- one rectangular plate — overall X, Y and Z
- zero or four through-holes, all the same diameter, on an X/Y spacing pair centred on the plate
- one fillet radius applied to all four outer vertical corners
- Needs modeling capability we don't have yet
- bends, flanges, or anything not flat
- pockets, counterbores, countersinks, slots or threads
- holes of differing diameters, counts other than four, or non-rectangular patterns
- ribs, bosses, shells or hollow bodies
- cylinders, cones, spheres, gears, splines or organic shapes
- assemblies, or more than one body
- variable thickness, tapers or draft

The measurements a plate needs
- Always
- Overall length, overall width, thickness
- With holes
- Hole diameter, and the centre-to-centre spacing in both directions
- With rounded corners
- The corner radius
