Using Xara for 3D printing

[Mike Bailey]

I just got my first 3D printer a few days ago, this was a test print I thought I would share with the Forum, the drawing is from the Xara content catalog (I take no credit for creating it), I exported the file in a format that could be read by my 3D modeling software. I worked on the drawing to give it some dimension along the Z axis and saved it as an STL file. Sliced and diced it for the printer resulting in a piece of plastic that looks pretty nice. Final thoughts: I can use Xara to draw shapes and turn them into real objects. Cool to the max.
