I’m designing a table and need help getting this tabletop design into Shapr3D. The tabletop has a wave circle design like the attached. I’d also like to know how I can divide this up into tiles. As each section of the wave will be a tile. Thanks

Hello and Welcome !  
To design the tabletop, you need a sketch and an extrusion.  
At this time, Shapr3d don’t have a specific tool to directly round sketch.  
There are several ways to do this. Here’s how I will do it.  
1• Create a sketch and draw a “star” with the same number of branches as your drawing. (I use your image in background)  
2• Select the shape and made Extrude  
3• Select the body and apply: Tools \> Chamfer/Fillet.  
You can change the thickness of the extrusion or the radius of the rounding in History.
