I set my Unit System in Scene Properties > Units to Metric and the Unit Scale to $0.01$, hoping to get Blender's dimensions in millimeters. With the object scale at $1$ on all axes, the default ...

May 15, 2023 · 1 I'm new to 3D printing and I would like to use blender to generate some simple models. I've used it before, but I am still a novice. The first thing every instruction set mentions when trying to …

Aug 16, 2020 · I'm trying to fix up this mesh for 3D printing: In Blender, the highlighted mesh on her body looks smooth. But once exported to STL and in the slicer, the edges are sharp along the mesh …

Nov 17, 2021 · If you're missing a step it's possibly in the export process or the setup of the 3d printer's slicing software, I suspect. Many file formats used by 3D printers don't have scale as a file format …

Nov 28, 2020 · For making meshes for 3D printing, I recommend the Blender add-on '3D-print Toolbox' It has a ton of really helpful tools that help diagnose problems with your model.

Sep 16, 2023 · New to 3d printing and really want to get some of my models to work, could someone please explain in a "newbie" way on how I can go about fixing these intersecting faces? I …

Feb 11, 2022 · The problem is that adding thickness (using Add Modifier > Solidify) results in a mesh that has thickness, but is not good for 3D printing - it's non-manifold. Here's a simple example.

This is more or less my process for cleaning up intersecting faces. Using the 3D printing plugin, detect intersecting faces. Make manifold, also 3D printing plugin. Triangulate all intersecting faces. …

Nov 12, 2019 · You can simply set the scene units to millimeters instead of meters (which is the default), and the 3D printing toolbox tests will update accordingly. The other one is by changing the thickness …

Nov 25, 2019 · This is my first model for 3D printing, and I'm trying to fix non manifold edges. I included a screenshot, there are 6 non manifold edges. Things I already tried: - recalculate normals - remove …
