1. Render an object in BlocksCAD. If there are multiple shapes in your design, make sure there are no gaps between them, otherwise your file will fail to print.

2. Select Generate STL in the bottom lefthand corner. This will download a .stl file of your design onto your computer. Open this file in PrusaSlicer

3. If you want to rescale your object, you can do so using the Object Manipulation menu to the right. I chose to scale my object by 200%

4. Another helpful tool is the Place-On-Face tool. It allows you to select which side of your object you want to be the base. I did not need to use the tool for this object, but it can be helpful for files that import lopsided.

5. Slice your object by clicking slice now in the bottom left hand corner. Then click export gcode.

6. Import the gcode into a 3D printer and print away!
