PRINTING FROM MAKERBOT DESKTOP
FINDING A 3D MODEL
Every 3D print starts with a 3D model. If you design a 3D model yourself, export it from your
3D modeling application in STL or OBJ format. If you don’t have a 3D model, download one
from Thingiverse, either through the website at thingiverse.com or through the Explore tab
in MakerBot Desktop.
•
• • To open a model from Thingiverse, go to the Explore tab, locate the Thing you want
to print, and click Prepare to open it in the Prepare tab.
• • To open a model saved in your Library, go to the Library tab and select a folder to
browse. Mouse over a list item to show a menu icon. Click the icon and select
Prepare to open the model in the Prepare tab.
• • To open a file saved to your local computer, go to the Prepare tab, click Add File, and
• navigate to the location of the saved file. Select the file and click Open to import it
into MakerBot Desktop.
Let’s download an example object through the Explore tab.
1. Click Explore tab at the top of the MakerBot Desktop screen.
2. Type “Queen Anne coee table” into the search bar and press Enter. One of the results
will be Miniature Queen Anne Coee Tables. Click the image to go to the Thing page.
3. On the Miniature Queen Anne Coee Tables page, click Prepare.
4. You will be shown a list of available files. Next to each listed file is a Prepare button. Click
Prepare next to the QA_CoeeTable_Rect.stl file. MakerBot Desktop will download your file
and open it in the Prepare tab.
