BumpMesh by CNC Kitchen is a free browser-based tool for adding real displacement textures to 3D models. It accepts STL, OBJ, and 3MF files and processes them locally in the browser, so model data is not uploaded to a server.
After loading a model, users can choose or upload a displacement map, select a projection mode, and adjust texture height, scale, offset, rotation, smoothing, and masking. A live 3D preview helps tune the result before export.
Useful capabilities include:
BumpMesh is a practical alternative to a longer Blender or CAD workflow when the goal is simply to add tactile patterns, grip, decoration, or surface detail to an existing printable model.
