Install FreeCAD-Lithophane

to this awesome Lithophane.
If not installed already go to https://www.freecadweb.org/ and grab yourself a fresh copy of FreeCAD and install it. FreeCAD is a AWESOME free 3D CAD parametric modeling application. Don't worry. You don't need to know much about 3D modelling to get a nice looking Lithophane out of this tool.
Install the Lithophane Workbench. The workbench is available in the addon manager. The addon manager can be found in the Tools menu. Locate the "Lithophane" entry and click Install.
Switch to the Lithophane workbench in FreeCAD
Click the "Import Image" button A file selector will be shown. Select the image and click "Open" Depending on the image and your machine, it might take a while for the import to finish. On my 8 years old Intel i7-2670QM it takes about 8 seconds to import the windmill image (814x1000 pixels) FreeCAD might be unresponsive during the import
Switch to the TreeView and select the imported image
Click the "Create Box" button Depending on the image and your machine it might take a while to compute the geometry. On my machine the testimage needed about 2 Seconds to compute. FreeCAD might be unresponsive during the import
Now you should see the image in the TreeView and the Viewport. You can pan and zoom to look on the image from different sides. See Mouse Model for more information on how to navigate in FreeCADs 3D View
Select the generated mesh in the TreeView and click on File -> Export. Choose STL Mesh (Or anything your slicer software could handle) as file format and save the file somewhere on your machine.
Fire Up your slicer (e.g. Cura) and load the exported file. Adapt the settings according to your 3D Printer and save the gcode. Load the gcode in your printer and let it print. This might take some hours to finish.
Have fun with your nice Lithophane image :)
