Repstock Posted September 25, 2022 Share Posted September 25, 2022 This is my first 3D drawing. Will all the extra surrounding lines affect the use of the model? I'm still learning, But I'd like to use this if I can. I waited to the end to scale it, and if I try to erase the extra lines, It returns to too large.

my66s55 Posted September 25, 2022 Share Posted September 25, 2022 If they don't have a face and are just lines they won't print. I use the Meshlab program to check my files for correctness. It will show you what the file will print. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Tom, I think you did well for your first drawing. I may have to give that a go myself. My recommendation is to redraw it in the correct scale, or leave it in the original size and rescale the stl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My program analyzed the drawing and saw no issues. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
