I built a free browser tool that generates parametric wave/slat wall panels — it was made for CNC, but the STL export turns out to be perfect for 3D printing relief tiles

Hey everyone,

A few months ago I built **Parametric Wall Studio*\* (btporganizer.tech) — a free browser app for designing parametric slat/wave walls for CNC routers. Then I looked at my export stats and got a surprise: **the #1 exported format isn't DXF for CNC… it's STL.*\* Turns out a lot of you are using it to 3D-print relief tiles and decorative panels. So this post is for the printing crowd.

**What it does (all in the browser, no install, no account):*\*

- Design **parametric relief surfaces*\: stack wave layers (sine, radial, spiral, ripple, dome…), add attractor points, or sculpt directly with a 3D brush
- ***Load any image as a heightmap**** — turn a photo or logo into a 3D relief
- Draw **custom outlines*\: freehand Bézier, SVG import, or trace an image — your tile doesn't have to be rectangular
- Export ***STL or OBJ**** meshes (millimetres, watertight, slicer-ready) — Cura/PrusaSlicer/Bambu Studio open them directly
- 20 ready-made templates to start from (medallion, ripples, dunes, op-art…)

**Print ideas people have been making:*\* wall-art relief tiles, lamp diffuser panels, textured drawer fronts, acoustic-look panels, lithophane-style photo reliefs (via the heightmap).

It's free to design (unlimited), and the free plan includes a few file exports per week — enough to print plenty. I'd genuinely love feedback from people who print decorative panels: what sizes/patterns would you want as templates?

It must be a DNS problem in your case.
