Thingiverse STL Downloader

Those ads sure are annoying. Skip 'em, and get straight to the good stuff.

This repository is here for the normal purposes of version control, but also to allow users to side-load the extension just in-case Google doesn't approve it.

Install

The extension can (hopefully) be installed from the web store, or from source.

Install from Web Store

If/when the extension is approved by Google, I'll replace this sentence with a link to the web store page.

Install from Source

  1. Download the latest release.

  2. Unzip the contents somewhere on your disk.

    • I created a folder in Documents called Custom Chrome Extensions
  3. In Chrome, go to chrome://extensions in the address bar.

  4. Turn on the Developer Mode option in the upper-right corner.

  5. Choose Load Unpacked

  6. Browse to and select the directory where you unzipped the extension release.

  7. Enable the extension.

  8. Enjoy, and keep on making stuff.

Support

If you like the extension and don't like ads, please consider buying me a coffee.
