What is SlantTools by Slant 3D?
SlantTools is a set of free browser generators powered by the Slant 3D API, where you can also order the real part. The homepage lists 17 live tools: an architectural model maker (floor plan photos or PDFs to walls and floor), block builder, electrical enclosure with board posts and a screw-down lid, LEGO-compatible brick builder, box generator, 3D text in 20 fonts, vase maker, two Gridfinity organizers, an experimental M18 Packout insert from a tool scan, wheel, pulley and gear maker, cookie cutter from a photo or drawing, medallion maker, massage roller, vacuum nozzle, a sculpting tool and a lithophane nightlight builder.
Each tool shows a 3D preview with a few settings, such as width, depth, height and wall thickness for the box generator, and a filament color picker. As you change the model you get a live Slant 3D quote with a price and shipping time, and Add to cart orders the real part printed by Slant 3D. A life-size AR preview shows the part on your desk.
The generators are free to use without an account. To get the STL file yourself you click Save File, which asks you to continue with Google and saves the design to your profile; the profile page then has a Download STL button for each saved design. So a printable file is available, but only after Google sign-in. Slant 3D confirmed that you may sell prints of the files you create.
