Description

123D Make is slicing software often used in conjunction with a laser cutter or CNC router instead of a 3d printer. This program allows you to slice a digital 3d model into layers of any thickness you choose, with the intent of then stacking those layers in order to create a large 3d model out of materials such as cardboard or plywood. It can also be used to create complicated 3d models which can be assembled like puzzles.

Availability
