SVG vs. PNG for Cutting Projects: Choose for the Job
A sharp preview doesn’t tell you whether a file is ready to cut. Compare SVG and PNG by what your project needs, then check what survives the upload.
Design Files
Inches and Millimeters: Keep the Units With the Number
A bare number can change meaning when it moves between drawings and software. Keep its unit, check a known dimension, and make rounding a deliberate choice.
Linked or Embedded Images: What Travels With the File?
A placed image may depend on a separate source file. Check what is linked, what is embedded, and what belongs in the editable project you share.
STL or 3MF? Keep the Model and the Slicer Project
A model file and a saved slicer project preserve different parts of the work. Keep both, along with the editable design and a clear record of the setup.
What Belongs in a Workshop Project Handoff Folder?
Give the next person the files and the decisions that belong with them. Use this copyable handoff note to identify the version, requirements, and open questions.
