Show HN: I turned a sketch into a 3D-print pegboard for my kid with an AI agent

https://github.com/virpo/pegboard
22•virpo•5h ago
We have pegboards and plywood all over our apartment, and I had an idea to make a tiny pegboard for my kid, Oli. So I naturally cut the wood, drilled in the holes, sat down at the computer to open Fusion 360 and spend an hour or two drawing the pieces by hand.

Then I looked at the rough sketch Oli and I had made together, took a photo of it, pasted it into Codex, and gave it just two dimensions: the holes are 40mm apart and the pegs are 8mm wide.

To my surprise, 5 minutes later my 3D printer was heating up and printing the first set.

I ran it a few times to tune the dimensions for ideal fit, but I am posting the final result as a repository in case anyone else wants to print one, tweak it, or have fun with it too. I am already printing another one to hang on our front door instead of a wreath, so people visiting us have something fun and intriguing to play with while they knock.

This is also going onto my list of weird uses of AI from the last few months.

Great work.

The Agent x Parent combo has become my favorite niche in LLM space. It's unlocked so much creativity at a time where we have the least disposable time.
