Mesh rebuild freecad bracket
hard tier · create
The request
I've attached an STL of an L-bracket exported from a CAD application. Rebuild it as a clean parametric part: one sub-part named exactly `bracket`, matching the mesh's dimensions, hole positions and slots, and standing in the same place as the mesh (Z up, same origin — build it where the import sits, don't re-centre it). Give it three controls — `width`, `thickness` and `holeDiameter` — whose defaults match the mesh and whose ranges cover ±10 mm, 2–8 mm and 3–8 mm. Keep the mesh imported in the part while you work. Measure the mesh first; do not guess.

What the AI judge checks
- The overall form matches the reference: the same kind of object, the same silhouette from the matching angle
- Proportions match: the relative sizes of the major dimensions agree with the reference within what the eye can judge
- Every major feature visible in the reference (holes, slots, bosses, tabs, lips) is present in the result
- Those features sit where the reference has them
- Nothing is present that the reference does not show — no decorative or unexplained geometry
- Edges are straight and faces are flat — a CAD rebuild, not a copy of the mesh's facets
- The slots are elongated openings, not round holes
Measured checks
- one sub-part named bracket (gate)
- volume within 3 % of the mesh (gate)
- bounding box within 0.5 mm of the mesh (gate)
- symmetric difference under the measured floor
- holes match the mesh
- the imported bracket is still declared as an import
- asked the oracle at most once
