3D Orchard

3D Orchard is a free online platform for crowdsourced design. It includes free, built-in CAD tools and everything needed to turn an idea into a physical product. Because the computer-aided design (CAD) tools are built-in and free, people can edit and evolve each others 3D models. As the 3D models evolve over time, they trace out a tree (hence "3D Orchard"). Any 3D model can be downloaded and 3D printed locally.
