## Email body
|
||||
|
||||
Hey everyone!
|
||||
|
||||
Thanks to everyone who came out to our October meetup and brought objects to test out the photo-to-CAD workflow. We are back on our regular third-Wednesday schedule for November.
|
||||
|
||||
You can always check the schedule and past challenge details at [www.fargo3d.com](https://www.fargo3d.com).
|
||||
|
||||
**Date:** Wednesday, November 18th, 2026
|
||||
**Time:** 6:00 to 8:00 PM
|
||||
**Location:** West Fargo Public Library, 215 Third St. E., West Fargo, ND 58078
|
||||
|
||||
John will kick things off with industry news, followed by show and tell, a second round of building CAD with AI, and judging for our November print challenge.

### Special session: Building CAD with AI follow-up
|
||||
|
||||
Last month we started testing an AI agent skill that generates 3D models from photos. We learned a lot about what works well and what trips it up, so we are continuing the experiment this month.
|
||||
|
||||
- If you printed a model generated during the October session, bring the physical print and the original object so we can compare them side by side.
|
||||
- If you missed last month or have another broken part, bracket, or household item you want to model, bring it along and we will run it through the updated workflow.
|
||||

|
||||
### November challenge: Thanksgiving & fall table prints
|
||||
|
||||
With Thanksgiving the following week, our November challenge focuses on the kitchen and the dinner table. Bring a print that helps with cooking, serving, or decorating for the holiday meal.
|
||||
|
||||
**Ideas for entries:**
|
||||
- **Table decor.** Napkin rings, place card holders, autumn centerpieces, or candle holders.
|
||||
- **Kitchen and serving tools.** Pie crust shields, cookie cutters, measuring scoops, utensil holders, coasters, or trivet stands.
|
||||
- **Any model works.** You can design your own part from scratch, use the AI CAD tools, or print a community file from Printables, MakerWorld, or Thangs.
|
||||
|
||||
### Voting and prizes
|
||||
|
||||
- Everyone at the meetup gets a vote for their favorite entry based on usefulness, print quality, and how well it fits the Thanksgiving theme.
|
||||
- The winner takes home a free spool of filament.
|
||||
|
||||
See you on **Wednesday, November 18th** at 6:00 PM!

### Special Session: Building CAD with AI
|
||||
|
||||
For this month's special session, we are testing out an AI agent skill that builds CAD models directly from photos.
|
||||
|
||||
**What to bring:**
|
||||
- Bring a physical object or something you have wanted to make a CAD file for.
|
||||
- We will take photos and test how well the AI agent generates a 3D-printable CAD model on the spot.
