I got tired of opening 20 files to find the one I wanted to reprint, so I built a free preview browser for 3MF/STL folders

Wait 5 sec.

I've got 611 STL and 3MF files, plus a few SVGs. The filenames don't tell me what they are, so reprinting meant opening file after file in the slicer until I hit the right one. PrintShelf points at that folder and shows a thumbnail for every model, then a live preview when you click one. There's no import step and no new library to maintain. What v0.1.2 does: Thumbnails and a 3D preview for STL and 3MF, including Bambu plates, plus a flat preview for SVG Uses the folder you already have, and remembers it next time you open the app Delete a file from disk, with a confirmation, and only inside that folder Mac (Apple Silicon) and Windows The honest part: It's early, and I'm the only one building it The builds aren't code-signed, so Windows SmartScreen and macOS warn you the first time. The release notes have the steps Free for personal use.
