CADspan plugin for Sketchup

With the help of CADspan plugin the sketchup users are able to generate solid, 3D printable geometry(STL files) from SketchUp model to perform a virtual 'shrink-wrap' . Files can be forwarded directly to the web application through the plugin.
The STL file is considered to be a single solid object available for 3D printing.
Cadspan Pro will make use of exported drawings from Sketchup, Revit, ArchiCAD, Rhino, 3dStudioMax, Bentley and others to produce files that will print on numerous 3D printing machines.
There is also a CADspan's 3D print thickness calculator that will figure out the proper amount of adjustment needed to make a model perfect for 3D printing.
