For
CAD owners seeking a physical display piece
Worth noticing
The page lists STEP, IGES, STL, and OBJ uploads, but says custom files currently go by email while the online uploader is being built.

Field notes

The proposed workflow uses an assembly with separate parts, with STEP named as the best-result format; the model is then exploded along one axis. The page specifies subsurface engraving at 300 DPI and an optional LED light base, while also labeling the site a concept and its prices and editions as placeholders.
