cmetzel and others,

thanks a million!  Our company has SolidWorks on a main engineering station CPU.  I contacted SolidWorks support and they told me that normally they only allow one extra install per license (somebody else already has it), however, they have set me up with an extra install key so that I can set up here at the house.   Looks like I'll be in business, lol!  Thanks again for the input!

That's awesome, sounds like a good company to do that for you.

They have an Up! (Or some other similar printer) on their front page. Check out some of the tutorials - there is one to export to an STL, then just import that into repetier.

Kevin

I was wondering whether anyone on this forum has successfully used Invent to export an STL file and then print on a Solidoodle?  Any additional info and comments are appreciated.  Thanks!  Kevin
