Creating an STL from a FreeCAD part is about as simple as it can be.
Highlight the part by clicking on it in the left hand Application window.
Click File-Export
Type in the filename, select the directory where you want it (defaults
to the current location), and select STL from the list of many
Ugh. Why can't it just do all that automatically to whatever is the currently
selected part of what's on the screen, or all of it if all of what's on screen
is one object?Save > Export > .STL
and the software does the rest behind the scenes.

Hi Gene,
I've only played with the path workbench a little when I was trying to work out

Just to clarify. That was a typo that pretty much inverted the meaning
of the sentence.
Swap "Not" to "Note"

I see all that, but if I select gcolde to feed my milling machine running
the master version of LinuxCNC, it brings up a list of post-proc's, one
of which is Linuxcnc. And if sent as a print job to my huge brother
mfc-j6920-dw, it spits out a blank sheet of glossy photo paper. So I'm

I don't understand this. Wouldn't you look at the file on the monitor
before trying to print it?
Every project tracks problems differently. Many will use github's problem
tracker.It appears this is the case with FreeCAD.I see there are
currently 41 open issues and over 3,100 closed

And I just found that it generates NO errors for either a gcode export
that generates no file, and issues a blank page when you print it. The
only file type it will generate is *.FCstd's. To quote Jackie G., What

You will not find a tutorial that will walk you through making the part you
want. But you will find one that starts out showing you how to make a 2D
sketch And another that shows how to define dimension that are functions of
other dimensions and another that talks about making "extrusions"
