Re: 3D Printing and Inventor

I have been exporting drawings right out of Solidworks in the .stl format, opening them in the Makerware software and printing them directly with no problems (Makerbot Replicator 2). I wonder if your problem is with Inventor or Cube?

Have you tried the Cubify software they have donated in the virtual KOP...I found that it works very well too...at least that will isolate your problem. (I'm sure you can import your Inventor file into the Cube software too.)
