Hello all,
I’m very new here, in fact, I’ve just created this account.
A little bit of me, I’m a software developer that is trying to learn CAD, since I have a 3d printer and wanted to come up with some designs of my own.
I’m trying the Pro version of Shapr3D for 14 days, and tried to design a very simple cube and I’m attempting to export it to Bambu Studio to slice it and print it.
But whatever I try, when importing my finished cube to Bambu Studio, the design looks way too small. And scaling it makes it way too big.
I’ve Google it, asked AI, read articles, followed instructions and still cannot get it right. You guys are my last hope as I’m very frustrated at this point.
I learnt that exporting to STL is not the best, so I tried with 3MF and STEP, but with same result.
As an example, I created a very simple 5mm x 5mm x 2 mm cube. Very simple sketch with extrusion.
Exporting it to Bambu Studio as 3MF, the measurements seems to be about right:
But this is what I see on the build plate:
And it prints exactly like that. Scaling it just makes it worse, as the initials 5mm x 5mm x 2mm are not respected and prints the object way too big.
I thought this could be a problem between millimeters and inches, but I’ve checked the settings in both Shapr3D and Bambu Studio, and both are in millimeters.
At this point I’m lost without knowing what to do. I know many people had this problem in the past but in my case it seems like I can’t solve it no matter what I try.
Thanks in advance.
