jessiemesh Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 I have an enormous .stl file (3GB, 7.7 million polygons, 23 million vertices) of a sculpture that was 3d scanned. I would like to reduce the number of surfaces so that I can manipulate it in Rhino and prepare it for CNC milling. What would be the best software/technique for making the file usable? Techniques tried so far: - Importing to MeshLab (gives option to simplify vertices, pressing OK causes crash) - Importing to Rhino and splitting mesh (Windows runs out of memory) - Importing to ZBrush (error) Any advice appreciated!
