I’ll let you know if anything cool comes out of my sketches!

An STL file, just like a DXF as well, is only a .txt file at the end, which means that you can open it in any text editor available. What you can do in Processing then is to write a text file which contains information on vertex position and polygon orientation and export it with an .stl extension. Do you have a specific project in mind in which you would like to use Processing and 3d printing?

Each ring is a unique piece indeed, but we still need to create a rubber mold in order to cast the final object in silver. How would you approach this problem?

What kind of output file did you settle on to use with shapeways. Links would be appreciated.
