3D Builder

3D Builder is an awesome tool for anyone using Windows 8.1-ready 3D printers. It makes managing your projects super easy and is a favorite among researchers looking to push the boundaries in their fields.

Compatibility with Windows 8.1

This cool utility only works on computers running Windows 8.1, so if you haven't updated your operating system yet, you won't be able to use all the great features that come with it.

User-Friendly Installation

No worries about complicated setups! Installing 3D Builder is a breeze. If you're new to this, you can start by checking out the sample objects included in the software. This is a great way to get familiar with how 3D models work.

Advanced Features for Experienced Users

If you're a bit more experienced, you can dive right in and load your own objects into the app. You can rotate, scale, or move them around however you like. Want to make it bigger? No problem—just adjust it as much as your printer allows!

Customization Options

You can specify exactly how big you want your object to be, pick the rotation angle, and decide where it sits in the scene. Need to duplicate or remove something? Easy peasy! You can even center it in the scene before hitting print.

Add Your Personal Touch

3D Builder also lets you customize details like the model’s title and designer name. Plus, you can add a brief description along with copyright details and license terms.

Previewing Made Simple

If you want to check out what you've made, just right-click on the main window! You can preview your object in wireframe mode which helps in spotting edges more accurately. You also have options to turn shadows on or off while previewing.

Add More Objects Easily

You can enhance your scene by adding new objects from other files or pulling from the app's library too!
