Text2Braille website generates 3d printable Braille sign from text

Great idea! Web page that takes text input and generates 3d printable vertically standing braille signage file in Braille for the blind.
After short processing you will be able to download STL or X3D file for your printer.
There are few options and interface is in German but it is simple and Google translate can help.
I get a strange error when I load it but after refresh it works just fine.
