The Write STL node
When to use it
Binary STL, for 3D printing and CAD.
Geometry only. No UVs, colours, materials or skeleton, and no vertex sharing either, so the file comes out large and the mesh arrives as loose triangles. If the destination is not a printer or a CAD tool, Write OBJ, Write PLY or Write GLB will serve you better.
Make the mesh watertight first: Weld, Fill Holes, and a look at Mesh Health. A printer will reject the boundary edges this format cannot even describe.
