[QUOTE="Labwa, post: 108779, member: 1874"] Jason, This is one of the biggest issues with Cerec. I had a meeting with them and they said i could get open stl. for less than 5k. Well no you get a file to print a solid model. You have to pay upwards of 15k to get the full software unlocked. This is so i can export a working file to 3shape. It is simply not accurate enough to start on a printed model as your base. Especially when its like the models from cerec.
