Fortunately, we have a 3D printer so it was just a matter of creating the most obvious thing, a little flat surface to host the card on with finger divots. When I first started building things with my 3D printer, [[Blog/2025-12-01/Grounding Your Agent|I used Claude Code with Python]] in order to build the model.

I use Claude for all sorts of things: [[Blog/2026-01-03/Claude Management|code (obviously), creating the markup for wiki template uses, research, and also to model]]! And recently I'd read somewhere about using OpenSCAD as a way to represent the model. The problem with Claude and Python is that Claude attempts to write code to create an STL file, but the primitives it operates with are not particularly useful. It still gets there eventually but you frequently end up with self-intersecting meshes and so on.
