Pixelart to 3D Extruded STL

A 3D Tool for 2D Artists

Windows Download (Incredibly Messy B3D ''JayCode'' Source Included)
Screenshots
 
A simple tool to take a .png, and spit out a chunky model, fit (hopefully) for 3D Printing.

Instructions
Download the tool here
Select a .png from the Input folder (left/right cursors or click the name of the image)
Tweak the sliders on the right to extrude
Click Export when happy.

You can also (with thanks to @Jerware) now select Export Multi STL to export separate files, ready for multicolour prints.

Job done!

Further instructions can be found in the readme.txt

 		A rather minor update.
@jerware was after a way to separate the .stl data for a multicolour print.
He asked if I could rejig this tool to do that, and I obliged.

Currently waiting on a test print to certify that it's doing what it's supposed to, but so far the slicer seems to be accepting the data, so..
*fingers crossed*

 		1. Couldn't remember
2. Hunted PC
3. Couldn't find it
4. Remembered it was on the SD Card.

Yep, Cura here, too.
I really need to get mine up and running again. It's been sat abandoned since the last time I updated this.. And that's a long long time ago.
Need to buy new PLA, first.

 		Hehehe, we made a big mistake when we bought mine; we assumed the rolls of filament were small, so we bought about 30 KG of the stuff! I probably won't run out for a few years...
