Re: holes not translating and other issue

OK, so just by the outline, I can see that it's not going to print what I "designed". I've attached a photo of what started printing as well as the .stl. I don't know what I'm doing wrong with sketchup, but this should be one piece. It's as it it's only doing the walls, and not the base. Help ...

Re: holes not translating and other issue

Some of the issues I corrected, but the main issue--not printing what I "designed", and printing over the holes remains. I am not a very good ...

holes not translating and other issue

I don't think the two are related, but I have 2 issues. One or both seem like they could be software issues, but I'm a noob at this. Most of the early prints were downloaded from thingiverse, and they all went well. no problems with the fan shrouds, either. I'm fairly lucky, as I had an engineer ...
