    I was trying to share the stl file for my 3DP Cage mast when I got the error mentioned above. Maybe 12MB is too big?

    12mb should be no problem. Can you be more specific about the error?

    Did you try putting the STL into a zip folder?

    When I select my file. The progress bar fills up and when it gets to the end I get this pop-up window. (See screen shot)

    Working on that now. I also discovered that the site doesn't like unix style *.tgz archives : P

    Stls are an allowed filetype and the upload limit should be much larger than 12mb, so that shouldnt be a problem :/

    If memory serves... That usually means your session went stale

    It liked the Zip file. I've never used Mint's compression app to make a zip before, though. Can anyone open it?

    Yeah, I can open it up. I get an error that it isn't manifold though.

    OK that's odd.
    I just unpacked it in a different folder and checked it with meshlab and slic3r. Both say it's a valid manifold.
    What tool did you use?

    It was Repitier Host that was saying it wasn't manifold. Slic3r didn't have a problem slicing it.
