I am learning to use a CNC router; I have a bunch of small geometric shapes as Solidworks 2010 parts that I want to assemble into a relief for machining. I discovered that when saving the assembly file as an STL, it broke up each part into its own STL file. That won't work for me, it needs to be a unified, single STL file. Is that even possible, or am I screwed?
Matthew,
Save the assembly as a part (Save As and then pick "Part" as the "Save as type"). You'll probably wan to pick the option "All components".
