  1. Help please. when i try to export it, it says:

    // Error: line 0: Could not save file "/test.stl".

    Even if I try to export a simple cube. plugin enabled, history deleted, no overlapping faces. im using maya every day and there is nothing wrong with my model. still getting the error.

  2. I just realized my Maya settings was set up to create a room in animation and not at default settings. Either way, I must say that you have a very nice way of giving lessons. We are currently looking for people just like you to help in building an Academy. I would love to speak with you. If not, great job and I wish you the best of luck. Thanks again.  🙂

  3. Hi Alexiaviolet, I'm new to 3D printing on my own and I am trying to really understand how to use this device from the dashboard end. The wall I keep crashing into is with the scale of the object once brought into the printer dashboard. I use Cube 3 dashboard from 3DS and when I pull the STL, it comes in rather large. I have been working with Maya for years so I understand the grid and how to measure, but there is obviously an error in what I'm doing because the model keeps coming in far to large. Can you assist?
