Model a shallow tray with removable dividers so different umbrella tips stay separated, while the wet surfaces remain easy to reach for cleaning.","category":"Home organization","difficulty":"Beginner","measurements":["Available floor width and depth, including door swing.","Footprint of each folded umbrella tip.","Desired rim height and space between dividers.","Clearance needed to lift the tray without snagging nearby furniture."],"prompt":"Design a shallow umbrella drip tray in millimeters. Use parameters tray_width, tray_depth, rim_height, wall_thickness, divider_count, divider_thickness and divider_clearance. Ask for missing dimensions and whether dividers must lift out. Add rounded inside corners and a broad flat bottom. Show the tray separately from its dividers. Do not assume that printed walls will be watertight or that the tray supports an upright umbrella.","steps":[{"title":"Map the footprint","detail":"Place the folded umbrellas on paper and mark their tips. Keep the proposed tray outside the door sweep and walking path."},{"title":"Build a cleanable basin","detail":"Start with the outer rectangle, hollow it, then add divider slots above the floor. Avoid narrow pockets that trap debris."},{"title":"Review removal paths","detail":"Preview each divider lifting vertically.
