    Wow- this is great! It's like the movies about sewing we saw in home ec way back in the day, only brought into the 21st century! Those sewing machines were more complicated than this nifty gizmo! If I can use a sewing machine, I can definitely run a 3D printer. : ) Getting old isn't all bad!

    I see this question has already bee asked but it was 2 years ago so im checking to see if they have improved it any. Is the Silhouette 3d software able to export files such as into STL files yet? Or can it run other machines?

      I downloaded the software and the only two options for saving are S3D and *.*. The latest, I don't know how to use... So I went online and did a search for a software translator. Got one and it won't accept the Silhouette's files... I am stuck...

    Will the software will be able to export stl files in the future? I dont mind paying for it. I already had a printer when the alta came out. But i really like the cameo and alta software.

    • @KellyWayment
      @KellyWayment 5 лет назад

      Sophie, I can't confirm this will actually happen because it's still in beta testing, but in the future watch for a pro version that not only exports to .stl but also runs other 3D printers from the Silhouette 3D software!

      @@KellyWayment Has Silhouette made it where Silhouette 3D can run other 3d printers yet? And if i design something in Silhouette 3D, can i save it as an stl and use a different slicer (Cura for instance) to run either the Alta or a different machine? im asking because i see its been 2 years since your reply here. Please and thank you

    Hello,I have problems with software 1.2.212
    Problem n.1 = opening the program the wi-fi disconnects.
    Problem n.2 = the response of the machine to the manual commands of the filament is very slow. The program in general is slow.
    Sure of your kind reply, best regards

    My prints are getting completely stuck to base tried cooled few mins and still warm it tears the tape and could only get it off using a scalpel carefully not damaging the plate , how can I stop this the plastic tool didn’t work it just slipped and sliced my hand open.

    I love the 3d files. How much filament is used to make a typical design? Can you use the filament included with the Alta to make more than one design?

    • @KellyWayment
      @KellyWayment 5 лет назад +2

      Yes, I made a lot of small pieces with the filament that's included. You can probably get hundreds of designs made with a refill roll, depending on the size and quality of your designs. It goes pretty far.

    This may sound like a silly question, what are the objects make with this machine used for?

    • @KellyWayment
      @KellyWayment 2 года назад

      They are mostly decorative, and often useful plastic parts. I suggest checking out Thingiverse.com to see what people are 3D printing.

      Emmanuel Barco what kind of design? If you have a 3D design from other software that’s .stl or .obj, you can open it. You can also open 2D designs that were created in Silhouette Studio to make a variety of 3D projects like boxes, cookie cutters, etc. Depends on what exactly you are trying to do.

      Michell Peralta There is a known bug with Macs communicating with the Alta in the current version. They are working on it. In the meantime, uninstall it and choose the legacy version instead.

      Robin Milne When the software first came out and this class was made, they did not differentiate the names between skirt and brim. It was all called a brim. Now you can choose either type and they are named correctly. 😊
