What is considered as furniture for this competition? There’s a lot of different categories when it comes to furniture!
Are we forced to submit the actual Rhino file?
For example mine is sitting at 69mb right now, I can export as a step file and zip it and it’ll be 5.7mb
I’m not sure how I’d get a 69mb file to you guys.
