Kesa

12 1 Beginner
Note: As of Blender 2.80, the ability to export VRML files was removed. On the bright side, if you use GrabCAD Print, you can still export full color models by way of a .OBJ file! You can learn here: https://grabcad.com/tutorials/how-to-use-blender-3d-software-with-grabcad-print. If you are using an older version of Blender, this Tutorial will teach you how to take an .OBJ file and convert it to VRML format to prepare it for 3D printing.
