Project box for an ESP32 dev board with USB opening
A compact housing for a 30-pin ESP32 DevKit board that leaves the USB connector exposed for programming and power while covering the pins. Inside, two rails with 0.4 mm clearance grip the board edges so no screws are needed, walls are 1.8 mm, and a 12 x 7 mm cut-out lines up with the connector. Side vents let heat out, and the lid slides in on a dovetail so the box can be opened repeatedly without wearing out clips. Open the ready-made model free, resize it on your phone or computer, then download a print-ready STL, 3MF or G-code sliced for your printer, free.Adjust
Change its numbers in the viewer for free, or ask the AI in the chat: wall thickness, hole size, the thing it clips onto. AI changes use 2 credits per request (1 for a quick edit, 3 for a redesign), paid with a plan from Maker at $7.99 a month.Dimensions of the ready-made model (editable)

Example prompt
Design a project box for an ESP32 DevKit board 55x28x13 mm. Internal rails holding the board edges with 0.4 mm clearance, 1.8 mm walls, 18 mm internal height. 12x7 mm USB cut-out on one side, 3 mm above the floor. Sliding dovetail lid and six 10x2 mm vent slots.
Fit notes
ESP32 boards come in a dozen footprints, and SpeakCAD sizes the rails and connector opening to the one you have, with room for an antenna or a status LED window if you ask. Try the preview in your browser and widen the slot or add a reset button hole in the next message.

A shared STL is modelled for someone else's measurements. Here you open the ready-made model free, change it to your measurements in the viewer, then download a file sized for the part you actually own, free as STL or 3MF.
Yes. SpeakCAD slices the part on its servers with OrcaSlicer and your printer's official profile (380+ printers, including Bambu Lab, Prusa, Creality and Elegoo), and you download the G-code (a sliced .gcode.3mf for Bambu Lab printers). G-code sliced for your printer costs the same as the STL: included in every plan, free for a part you shaped by hand, 4 credits without a plan for a part with AI work in it. Pick your printer on the printers page to see its profile.
No. SpeakCAD runs in the browser on your phone or computer: the chat, the 3D engine and the live viewer load in the tab. The only file you download is the finished STL, 3MF or sliced G-code.
