I’ve noticed that many people spend a lot of time fixing STL files before printing.
So I wrote a short guide explaining why ready-to-print models can save hours and reduce failures, especially for sellers and beginners.
Would love to hear your experience — do you prefer fixing models or using optimized ones?
Here is the article if you’re interested:


The only use case I see for helping with STL files at this point, is if the path to quads is made easier. As others have said, STEP is far better because it retains π. I do not do file sharing or print the designs of others because they are usually of dubious quality. Sadly, legislation has made the subject of connecting and sharing political with no effective push back from businesses in this space. If I am forced to chose between digital slavery with internet and disconnecting, I prefer the island life. In prep for that impending dystopia, I would not use any online service like this in my tools. I hope it is useful for someone. GL.
