Thank you! I am fairly new to 3D printing and found a parametric file for something and needed to know how to get STL files after I updated the parameters. Super fast video, simple to the point. Just what I needed. I didn't need fluff or a long preamble. Just a quick how to.
Damn I wish you would also show the ultimaker cura part as I know thats how my university also prints it but I don't know how to edit anything within those settings so it doesn't ruin my print
In the Save as Mesh dialog at about :56, I turn on Preview Mesh. Expand the Refinement Options, then you can reduce the Surface Deviation and Normal Deviation to the minimum to get a higher resolution. The other two options (Maximum Edge Length and Aspect Ratio) do not seem to affect the resolution of curved surfaces. Thanks for watching!
In the Browser, expand the Bodies folder. If there is more than one body, you will want to combine them into one before you export. In the Modify panel, select COMBINE, then select each body, then click OK. They should now be combined into one body. Now repeat the steps to export the body to a mesh. Let me know if this works!
@@betweencadclasses I tired what you said and it still had the same outcome. I even tried Onshape and the same problem so it’s something I’m doing wrong. I have a stink pipe on the top of a house that’s mostly covered by the soffit from an addition or repair of the roof. I was trying to make an adapter to channel the sink smell out of the soffit and outside like intended. You you think someone on fiver would be able to get the model made? Fusion 360 gives me such a headache 😆
Simple and straight to the point.

I would be happy to try and answer any questions you have about Cura. I am far from an expert but have done some experimenting.
Is that the highest resolution it can export at?

I’m having trouble with the file after it’s saved and running on my slicer half of the object is missing in the middle? You know what I did wrong?
Is there any chance that your Fusion360 model was made up of separate bodies?
@@betweencadclasses yes two parts that I used loft to connect them together. Everything looks perfect until I slice it.

Hi hope all is well I have the same problem although on bodies I have only one is combined but cura leaves a part of it out
