How do you let customers design their own precision-cut metal parts online - with exact dimensions, real manufacturing constraints, and instant visual feedback? That was the challenge facing The Shim Shack. Through our collaboration, we delivered a suite of parametric 3D configurators that run directly inside their existing WordPress store. You can try them yourself at buildyourparts.theshimshack.com.

If you've ever tried to load, edit or create a complex STEP assembly in a web browser, you know how tricky it can be. STEP is the standard format engineers use to share CAD models, but browsers don't understand it natively. You usually need desktop software or a server to convert it.

With Bitbybit v1.0.0-rc.1, that changes. You can now load STEP assemblies directly in the browser, explore their structure, extract individual parts, and export to web-friendly formats. Everything runs locally using Bitbybit OCCT WebAssembly.
