Designspark can import the geometry as surfaces or solids, and the edited geometry can be exported as an stl within designspark for a more reliable export. Sketchup has a habit of making bad STL files with non-manifold geometry or flipped faces. NOT MANIFOLD! A phone case from thingiverse designed in sketchup. Imported STL from thingiverse - DesignSpark was able to reconstruct the arcs in the geometry (STLs don’t have arcs), and dimensions were added to fully understand the geometry and transfer ideas and dimensions to other designs. components and subcomponents can be in the same file or in multiple files. rotating a hole (even into other faces) - moving only one end of a hole (making an elliptical hole) - Creating a pattern in a sketch - Creating a pattern in a solidħ Simple Part Examples Simple parts that I have 3D printedįor scale, most of the holes shown are around 3mm diameterĨ Complexity Capable More complicated partsĩ Augmenting STLs Filling in the corners of an STL from thingiverse to improve prints (Adhesion issue caused by filleted edge)ġ0 Assemblies Assembly comprised of Thingiverse STLs and designspark models.
