- 3d printer,

Here is a Brief Overview accompanied by videos to show how to prepare a model for 3d printing.
- In this first video, I will create a simple house in Tinkercad to be used for 3d printing.
- After creating an object in Tinkercad, you then export it as an stl file.
- After it has finished downloading, lets install Makerbot or whatever slicer is recommended for your 3d printer.
- After you have finished installing your prefered slicer, you can load your stl file onto, for slicing. Once you’r done tweaking the settings, you can either print via a usb cable, or export it to a USB Flash Drive or SD Card.
