# McTo3D – Minecraft to 3D Printing<\/p>\n
**Turn your Minecraft builds into physical objects.**<\/p>\n
McTo3D is a utility mod designed to bridge the gap between Minecraft creativity and 3D printing technology. It functions as a simplified CAD tool within the game, allowing players to select, process, and export structures directly into formats compatible with major slicing software (Bambu Studio, Cura, PrusaSlicer).<\/p>\n
Whether you are designing architectural models or custom figurines, McTo3D provides a streamlined workflow from block placement to STL generation.<\/p>\n
## \ud83c\udf1f Key Features<\/p>\n
### \ud83d\udee0\ufe0f Precision Selection Tools
\nDefine your export area with accuracy using two distinct methods:
\n* **Wand Selection:** Use the **Golden Hoe** to quickly define corners (Left-Click for Position 1, Right-Click for Position 2).
\n* **Command Selection:** Use `\/pos1` and `\/pos2` for precise coordinate targeting based on your player position.<\/p>\n
### \ud83d\udcd0 Axis Manipulation
\nNeed to capture underground foundations or high rooftops without moving?
\n* **Vertical Expansion:** Easily adjust your selection boundaries using the `\/expand` command.
\n * *Example:* `\/expand 10` adds 10 blocks upwards.
\n * *Example:* `\/expand -5` adds 5 blocks downwards.<\/p>\n
### \ud83d\udcbe Advanced Export Modes
\nMcTo3D offers versatile export options tailored to your hardware:
\n* **Raw Mode:** Exports pure geometry. Ideal for single-color prints or post-processing in Blender.
\n* **Color Mode:** Exports geometry with color data. Optimized for multi-material systems like **Bambu Lab AMS** or Prusa MMU, allowing for full-color 3D prints directly from the game.<\/p>\n
