Frequently Asked Questions

CAD (Computer-Aided Design): Used to draw and create the 3D model (e.g., Fusion 360, Tinkercad).

Modeling: Tinkercad (browser-based, very simple) or [Autodesk Fusion] (parametric, free for personal use).

The most common format is .STL, though .STEP and .OBJ are also widely used.
