I'm trying to understand if STL Importer is the proper tool for my application and if not, what is. Would someone be so kind to tell me if I'm on the right track?
It seems like everything I see about STL importer is about slicing up a 3D model. I don't want to slice my 3D model, I want to put the whole thing INSIDE my blank piece of wood and carve the piece from both sides to complete it. I also want to put the standard carving patterns on one side like you would in CarveWright designer.
If someone would just point me in the right direction I can usually pick it up from there. I just don't know where to go with my 3D model (.3ds file) to get it into designer and inside my carving board.
The photos below show what I am trying to make with my CarveWright.
Thanks in advance.
