2.3 Prepare printable models files

The first step of using 3D Printer is to make connections. Usually we build our 3D models in
computers. How do we "import" it into a 3D Printer? We need something called "3D model
slicing software". Here is how it works. It first cuts the model into thousands slices, calculates
nozzle's moving trajectory on each slice, plans how much material to extrude out of nozzle
