FROM YOUMAGINE.COM TO LOAD FILE IN CURA
Now that you are familiar with Cura we continue to explain how you can download a
3D file from YouMagine.com and load this into Cura.
YouMagine.com is an online community for 3D printing.
1. Open your browser and go to www.youmagine.com
2. Use the search field at the menu bar next to the magnifying glass to find a model
of your interest. Let’s search for example “coffee cup” and ‘Enter’.
3. Choose a design you like.
4. The following page will provide you a ‘Download’ button where you can get your
.stl file which is needed to print a 3D model.
5. The .stl file can be loaded into the Cura software, explained more fully in the next
chapter.
Tip: If you’ve made a 3D design yourself, you can contribute back to the YouMagine
community!
