Re: #3D STL conversion #3D


 

Thanks Julian for your understanding, this conversion (reverse engineering) is like making glass, once it's melted, a devil's job to get back to the raw materials.

I think the new Prusa slicer defaults to file extensions 3mf.
So I will?give?it a go.
I am using this ew slicer,( I was using slic3r) currently only in the Advanced mode at the moment, the Expert mode well ? LOL This slicer has 3 options to?select, Simple, Advanced, Expert.
I really recommend?it to anybody in?the?3D?printing hobby, and it's free, Thank you Josef Prusa.
It is certainly compatible?with my new Mizar in reference to exporting the g codes.
The days are gone with fighting the I3 clone printers, although without this past experience?
over a bunch of years, then maybe a newbie might find the Mizar intimidating the first go around.
All in all, for a couple of hundred dollars, the budget Geeetech printer will do me proud.
Cheers

John, I tried doing the same exercise a little while ago and failed miserably.? Free version of Fusion restricts one operation in the process which has to be done manually triangle by triangle.? My file had many facets, but that vase has a crazy number, so that route is a non starter.

Don't bother with any of the on line converters, they are a waste of time.? I eventually found a SolidWorks version which I managed to get converted on the system at work.? As many modern slicers and printers can use step files directly (claiming better results), perhaps try to find the same or similar vase in the required step format.

Also I think Fusion free version can import 3mf files and just ignores print side of the file.? If you can find one of those I'd be happy to try and convert/alter it for you.
