This is a tale of two 3D printed parts: one with an impeccably smooth finish, and another very much without. They were both printed from the exact same design. So why do they look so different?
Turns out, it all goes back to CAD. The export settings you use for your STL files can have a major impact on final part quality. Luckily, Print Systems Engineer Austin Vojta is here to help. In this video, Austin walks through a high quality STL export step by step in Fusion 360, and tells you everything you need to know before you import your file into Eiger and press print.
