Meshmixer

What do you like best?

Meshmixer can, with practice, help you simplify, combine, and correct models that may not be exactly what you want, but are close.

What do you dislike?

It takes some practice to get used to where everything is and how it works. It really requires some time watching videos or reading how to use it properly to use it to its full potential.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

If you are trying to make minor adjustments to prepare 3D models for printing, MeshMixer is a really helpful tool. If the models you are trying manipulate are highly detailed and you are trying to change those, use a different software to alter the model directly. Also, consider importing .obj files instead of .stl files if your model is really slow. .obj seem to import a bit faster.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

I am merging multiple models together, cutting out unnecessary geometry, and occasionally correcting a model that is broken that I wouldn't have been able to make on my own.
