That’s exactly what I had in mind, but traversing licenses is more the senior members of Jogamp specialty than mine, so when I get some time I’ll look into it and see what building an exporter might take.

i'm thinking that STL format could possibly be included as a 'loader' in the java3d 'continuation' stack, the STL import code i use is not actually mine but attributed to cyanobacterium https://github.com/cyanobacterium/STL-Parser-for-Java who released it under MIT license. i simply included and release all source and retained the original license for its parts in the same spirit.

currently, you may like to just play with my app, the STL codes currently still hit a blank for many STL files that one may download from thingverse
