From a Sentence to a Printable File

1

Write a Print-Friendly Prompt

Name one object and describe its shape, e.g. "a stocky owl figurine with folded wings, standing on a flat round base".

2

Generate

Most models are ready in about 1-3 minutes.

3

Check It in the Viewer

Rotate the model. If a part is too thin or missing, adjust the prompt and generate again.

4

Download the STL and Slice

Click Download STL, set the size in mm in your slicer, add supports and print.

How to Print Your STL

Here is how to take the downloaded STL from your prompt to the printer in Bambu Studio, OrcaSlicer or Cura.

Bambu Studio

  1. Import: drag the STL onto the build plate, or use File > Import.
  2. Scale: select the model, open the Scale tool and type the size you want in mm. Keep uniform scaling on so the proportions stay the same.
  3. Orient: use Lay on Face to put a flat side down, or Auto Orient.
  4. Supports: in the Support tab, turn on Enable support and pick a tree type for organic shapes.
  5. Slice and check the layer preview before you send it to the printer.

OrcaSlicer

  1. Import: drag the STL onto the plate, or use File > Import.
  2. Scale: select the model and set its size in mm with the Scale tool, with uniform scaling on.
  3. Orient: use Lay on Face or Auto Orient so the largest flat area sits on the bed.
  4. Supports: open the Support tab, enable support and choose tree supports for overhangs.
  5. Slice and scroll through the preview to spot gaps or floating parts.

Cura

  1. Import: use File > Open File(s), or drag the STL into the window.
  2. Scale: click the Scale tool in the left toolbar, keep Uniform Scaling ticked and enter the size in mm.
  3. Orient: use the Rotate tool and Lay Flat, or Select Face to Align to Build Plate.
  4. Supports: tick Generate Support in the print settings; Tree support works well on figures and organic shapes.
  5. Slice, then use the Preview tab to check each layer.
  • STL files have no units, and AI models arrive at an arbitrary size. Always set the real size in mm in your slicer before slicing.
  • STL stores shape only. Color and texture stay in the GLB download, so print in one filament color or paint the print afterwards.
  • If your slicer reports mesh errors, try its built-in repair option, then check the preview again.
  • Thin parts can be fragile once scaled down. Print a small test first, then scale up.

Text to STL: What Goes In and What Comes Out

Input

  • Prompt: A plain-English description of one object
  • Helpful Details: Shape, style, pose, and 'on a flat base' for stable prints
  • Avoid: Whole scenes, very thin details, exact measurements

Output

  • Downloads: STL (for slicers) and GLB (textured, for viewing and editing)
  • Generation Time: Usually about 1-3 minutes
  • Cost: 15 credits per model, the same as Text to 3D
  • Size: No fixed units: you set the print size in mm in your slicer

Frequently Asked Questions

It turns a written description into a 3D model and gives you the file in STL format, which every 3D printing slicer can open.
Describe one object, keep parts chunky rather than needle-thin, and ask for a flat base if it should stand up. For example: "a sitting fox figurine with a thick tail, on a flat oval base".
No. The AI produces organic and decorative shapes, not measured engineering parts. Scale the whole model in your slicer; for exact fits, use CAD software.
The STL is a standard file, so you can slice it for either. Resin slicers and FDM slicers both need you to set the size and supports yourself.
STL stores shape only. The textured model is in the GLB download.
Usually about 1-3 minutes. Each model costs 15 credits, the same as the Text to 3D tool.
