STL export instructions at 5:10. The rest of the video is filler. Your welcome.

[@garfieldwithissuez]

It's substantially less difficult to edit stl files today. Then it was 3 years ago when this was published. But it's still not the best option.

[@cache4pat]

How does Cura deal with a multi-part stl output, if that check box was not selected ? Are the parts still separated on the Slicer bed ?

[@WilliesBoatTours]

great info! thanks for uploading

[@joebo9378]

6:24 is when they show the steps to export a single part. Save yourself some time and skip here.

6:16 if you are looking for the quick answer

[@danielwepfer5942]

Where does it go on a Mac?

[@randallblake1213]

TLDR; 12 minutes to show how to export STL??????

[@IMChrisThom]

This vid could have been :30 and get the point across

[@Tony770jr]

I just started using OnShape today and I'm learning the differences between it and Fusion 360. I use these for creating 3D parts for printing so your info is very helpful. Thanks so much!!!

[@sithwarrior]

thank you this was very helpful video since I just learned how to use OnShape and was having a heck of time figuring out to export to STL so i can print it lol

[@Odysseus777]

Thank you

[@derrickcook1824]

[@MS-gr7rr]

thx

[@MrRsheftel]

Well done. Thank you!

[@mickeax73]

@2:16 I try to learn Onshape and then print stuff. I do mostly simple things, but it's a question, How to print such a part. It is two 90 °, it will be in the air. So you have to do support print or do the slicer program yourself?

[@SvenDahmen]

Normally the slicer will do the job. Take a look: support.ultimaker.com/hc/en-us/articles/360012612779-Support-settings

[@RedBreather]

3MF files is a better choicse

You didn't actually explain how to get that done. Useless... Unsubbing.
