Procedural CAD using Python bindings to Open Cascade

[Andrew Wagner]

Hi Guys-

I've been pretty busy with Ph.D. stuff, but a couple weeks ago I
tinkered around with a fairly new tool for doing procedural CAD
development:

http://www.pythonocc.org/
http://www.opencascade.org/

It's a bit of a pain to install, but if you're proficient with Python
and interested in doing procedural mechanical design, it's worth
checking out. One of these days I hope to port the Rhinoscripts /
VBScripts I wrote for generating keys over to pythonocc. Python is a
much nicer language to work in, and both python and Open Cascade are
free/open.

Cheers,
Drew

Andrew,

That looks like a interesting tool. Please keep us posted.
