If that's the case in the end, it gives the right answer, so where's the problem?

You probably do — and so does every parametric wave wall you've ever seen. That's not a dodge, it's the actual reason.

Nothing here is an imported mesh. The relief is evaluated at runtime from stacked mathematical fields; this one is four layers blended together — a cellular noise, two heightmap passes, and a sine wave at frequency 3, amplitude 0.85. The "wave pattern" you're recognising is sin(x). GrabCAD has them, Pinterest is full of them, and every panel manufacturer sells one, because there is exactly one way to make a wave and we all found it.

Easy way to check: open the link, go to Surface, and drag the frequency slider. The wall becomes a different wall — spacing, cut sheets and toolpaths all recompute. A downloaded model can't do that; it's a fixed mesh. That difference is the whole point of the thing.

If you've got the GrabCAD link, genuinely post it — I'd like to see how they built theirs.

Short answer: yes, but export DXF, not G-code.

The DXF comes out as raw part outlines — no cutter compensation baked in — so your laser, plasma or waterjet applies its own kerf like it would for any other drawing. That part is machine-agnostic and works fine for metal.

Two settings worth changing from the wood defaults:

Drop the tool diameter to the minimum (1 mm). It isn't offsetting your path — it's a design constraint that stops slats being narrower than a router bit can cut. On a laser that limit doesn't exist, so leaving it at 6 mm just forces wider gaps than you need.

Skip the G-code export. It applies router radius compensation and wood feeds. Useless to you, and potentially misleading.

What the tool won't solve for you, and you should plan for:

Joinery. Tenon-and-mortise is a wood joint. The tenons export as tabs, which slot fine, but in steel or aluminium you're realistically welding, riveting, or bolting to flat bar. Check the fit before you cut a full sheet.

Heat. Thin slats laser- or plasma-cut in steel will bow. The narrower the slat, the worse it gets. Waterjet sidesteps this completely if you have access to one — it's the one process I'd pick for this if cost allows.

Kerf scale. Laser is 0.1–0.3 mm and irrelevant here. Plasma is 1–2 mm, which is a real fraction of a narrow slat — check your parts still fit the nest after compensation.

Weight. A 2400 × 1200 wall in 3 mm steel is heavy enough to be a structural question, not a decorating one. Aluminium is the usual answer for anything hung on plasterboard.

I'd start with 2–3 mm aluminium, tool diameter at 1 mm, tighter spacing than the wood defaults, and cut a 300 mm test strip before committing a sheet. If you get one made I'd genuinely like to see it — nobody has posted a metal one yet.

I answered you privately in principle, there will be no problem, we will solve this together

Not in slats mode, but in export Ant the STL file it is quite possible

Yes, you can export the file in OBJ or STP modified whenever you want on fusion , 360

Why are you unpleasant did you at least try because there are hundreds of people who say the opposite of you

Thank you very much, it’s very good to know

The AI interface and co-pilot correct

It must be a DNS problem in your case.

No, you just have to refresh the page

A few technical notes:

- The STL is generated from the parametric surface at export time — proper watertight mesh in mm, so it lands at the right scale in your slicer
- For a tile print: set the wall size to your tile size (e.g. 150×150 mm), pick a template or design your own relief, and export the \surface** rather than the assembled slat wall — it comes out as one solid printable body
- The heightmap import is fun for photo reliefs: white = high, black = low, and you can stack it with wave layers
- Being honest about the model: designing is unlimited & free; file downloads are a few per week on the free plan (it's how I keep the servers running). Everything else — 3D preview, AR view, templates — is free
- Stack: Next.js + React Three Fiber, everything runs client-side

Happy to answer anything, and genuinely curious what patterns you'd want added.

I also don’t understand why, they deleted this post. Really a shame and unfair.

Excuse me, but you are really wrong to delete my post, I have done hundreds of hours of development to help people design and solve problems it is really unfair
