I built a tool that generates 3D objects assembled with separate, logical parts (e.g. it generated a microwave in the video with complete internal assembly and a door that swings open)
Summary
A new open-source tool called Nova3D uses an LLM to generate 3D objects with separate logical parts (e.g., a microwave with internal assembly and a swinging door), unlike monolithic AI generators. It writes Blender Python code to create clean, modular GLB exports suitable for animation and editing.
