36: Can I import STL files into SketchUp?
Yes, you can. Make sure you have the STL Import/Export plugin installed. Then go to File > Import, select STL as the file type, and choose your file.
37: Why does my STL file look broken or have holes after importing into SketchUp?
SketchUp struggles with very small geometry, which can cause clean STL files to appear broken, with missing faces or gaps upon import.
38: How can I fix these broken areas in SketchUp?
You can manually draw lines to close the gaps and recreate the missing surfaces (usually by making triangles). This works for a few holes, but it becomes tedious if there are many.
39: Is there a better way to prevent these geometry issues when importing?
Yes. Before importing into SketchUp, open your STL in a slicer (like Bambu Studio), scale it up by 10x, export the new STL, import it into SketchUp, and then scale it back down to original size (0.1x). This helps prevent breakage.
40: Can I edit the shape of an STL model in SketchUp?
Yes. After importing, enter Edit Group mode, clean up extra lines, or use Soften Edges to simplify the mesh. Then use Push/Pull or Move to reshape parts.
41: How do I stretch or extend parts of the model?
First, soften or erase unnecessary mesh lines. Once the surface becomes one clean face, use Push/Pull to extend. Use Shift while dragging to lock the direction for cleaner results.
42: How can I cut an STL model in SketchUp?
Create a flat surface (cutting plane) where you want to slice.
Select both the model and the plane.
Right-click and choose Intersect Faces > With Selection.
Then delete the unwanted parts.
43: I can’t select individual parts after cutting—what should I do?
You may need to manually add a separating line where needed. Once that’s done, SketchUp will treat the sections as separate and allow individual selection/deletion.
44: Can I export the edited file for 3D printing again?
Absolutely. Use File > Export STL to generate a new STL file, ready for printing on resin or FDM printers.
45: Any pro tips for working with STL files in SketchUp?
Scale up before import to avoid broken geometry.
Pre-fix in a slicer like Bambu Studio if needed.
Soften Edges before editing to simplify selections.
Use Shift to lock axes when moving or scaling.
For complex parts, edit section by section to avoid distortion.
