Be aware that programs like Vectorworks can make 3D printable files, but not every file is a good candidate for 3D printing. Intersecting faces, holes, extreme tapering forms, etc will cause a host of problems in the printing process. This guide discusses some common problems and how to fix them:

Feel free to come into the FabLab anytime we're open to get help translating your manifold .stl into a sliced .gcode for 3D printing!
