Thank you for making this. I had to make a cover to protect my power button on my computer so a cat can't accidentally shut it off if they jump up on it, but had to use some booleans to cut out the usb and audio ports as well but couldn't figure out how to export the model with the boolean modifiers in place. Now I'm happy, the cat is warm, and I won't get kicked out of a game online anymore.

As a Blender noob, this was extremely helpful! I keep scratching my head at the decisions the Blender gurus bake into the software, but I guess everything has its eclectics. I hate the " Oh, you'll get used to it" sentiment. No, things should be intuitive. But now I'm complaining... It is also weird that I have to use Windows or Netfabb to clean up an stl. Why doesn't Blender include this?! Anyway, thank you for these tutorials!

Keep in mind, Blender isn't made for making models for 3D printing. It's a 3D animation program that you *can* make models for 3D printing in. Fortunately, it's extensible, so until it's officially fixed, you could write a fix for it that might get folded into the official release.

You made it look harder than it is, just select what u want to export make sure that you don't have any missing faces or flipped normals and export with selection only as stl. Than open in prusa slicer and if it need it repair it there (it's automatic process) and if it can't repair it the way you want, use Netfabb, if it's still wrong that means that your model is just wrong :D

@@3dpprofessor You can configure any plug-in defaults to your liking :- 1. Open Blender in Admin mode (Right click on Blender icon in Start Menu > 'More' > 'Run as Administrator') 2. 'File' menu > 'Export' > 'Stl' 3. Right click on 'Selection Only' > 'Edit Source' - - (if you don't see the Edit Source option, open Blender Preferences > 'Interface' > 'Developer Extras'. 4. Close the export window and go to 'Scripting' workflow. At the top, click on the drop-down list near 'New' and 'Open'. Click on '__init__.py' 5. At this point, you will see the plug-in script (a long string of python code). Scroll all the way to the top of the script and click on the first line to move your cursor to the top of the script. 6. Press 'CTRL + F' > type Export selected objects only > click on Find Next ( !! use the Find 'Next button', do not press Enter!! ). 7. Just below the selected text, you will find default=False,.... replace it with default=True, (make sure capital T, no spaces and a comma at the end of line) 8. 'Text' menu > 'Save' and viola... next time you try to export in stl, the option should be turned on by default :) I hope this helps. Really nice series of tutorials btw! Thanks a lot !

Hello, I watched your video, but unfortunately did not find a solution to my problem. The thing is that when exporting a model for 3D printing, using the stl format, the quality of the model deteriorates greatly - rounded areas become angular (probably the number of polygons becomes less when exporting). I had the same problem when exporting 3D models from AutoCAD - the solution was to use the FACETRES command and increase the default value to the maximum. However, for blender I have never been able to find a solution and I would be very grateful if you could tell me!

If you could jump on my discord and upload the file, or post some pictures I'll be able to check it out for sure. But, with what information I have, the best I can say is that you're getting exactly what's there. What's the source of this file? Did you make it in Blender or was it make elsewhere? Chances are if it looks smooth in Blender that you've got smooth shading on, a method for faking your eyes into thinking there's more geometry than there is. Switch to flat shading by right-clicking on the object and choosing "flat shading", and you'll see what's really there.

Depends on your application. Solidify turns your shape into a shell with an outer and inner wall. Maybe you're thinking about the remesh modifier with the voxelize setting. That would work, but it means you have to turn your model into discreet and evenly space points all over your mesh, and I kinda like having a little more control of where the points go.
