Download your 3D model (.stl) file
Follow instructions steps 2->5 on this page
Additional files (if required for design editing)
Material used here was white eSun PLA Pro, but could use any type if the printer is correctly calibrated
Recommended print orientation. Using this will reduce the risk of forming defects/print failure
Additional Info On File Types
STL is a pure geometry file describing the shape of the object. Widespread slicer compatibility (the software that generates the procedure for the printer to follow), but difficult to edit.
STEP is a generic CAD file that includes paramatric information that facilitates editing the object in CAD software, for instance if someone wanted to change the shape/location of the funnel. It can be opened in most CAD programs and some slicers.
The FCStd file is specific to FreeCAD (a free, open source CAD software), so if someone was using this specific program they would likely want this file.
To summarize: STL is good for printing but not modifying. STEP is good for modifying across many CAD programs. FCStd is better for one specific, easily accessible CAD program.
