In-Depth Information
You'll see a model resembling the “thing” that will be printed (see Figure 20-32). You can use the
mouse to rotate this model to get a better view, but make sure that you are in View mode. If you are in
Move mode, clicking and dragging the mouse will move the object. There are many actions you can
perform on this box or other models, but that's best tried when you have more experience.
Figure 20-32. View the cube and use the mouse to rotate it around.
Because the 3D printer prints in layers, the model will need to be sliced and its Gcode created. Click
the Generate Gcode button shown in Figure 20-33.
Figure 20-33. Generate Gcode so the 3D printer will know how to print the cube.
After clicking generate Gcode, the “Choose a skeinforge profile” dialog box will appear, as shown in
Figure 20-34.
