📌 Overview
Give old parts a new purpose.
Repurpose challenges you to take an existing CAD model — yours or someone else's — and transform it into something entirely different. Whether you remix a gear into a lamp base or turn a bracket into a piece of furniture, this is about creative adaptation, functional reinvention, and thinking beyond intended use.
