Cantilever bracket — 250 N tip load, 6061-T6, SF≥4
sha256:33a91efbac0c1110…
§1Prompt verbatim
Design a cantilever bracket that bolts to a wall via two M6 holes 50 mm apart and supports a 250 N transverse tip load 80 mm from the wall, in 6061-T6 aluminium, with a static safety factor ≥ 4 against yield (σ_y = 276 MPa). Mass should be ≤ 60 g. Output STEP.

Each tile is rebuilt from the canonical parametric description and degraded to match the agent's scored profile (tessellation, non-manifold face removal, dimension scale jitter, missing features). Image-only diffusion models render visually plausible meshes but score in the single digits on BREP fidelity — the geometry is not a manifold solid even when the render reads clean.
