Get Started NowFrequently Asked Questions
Can I extrude these SVG files in Fusion 360?
Yes! SVG files import directly into Fusion 360. Use Insert → Insert SVG, select your file, then use the Extrude command to create a 3D solid from the 2D paths.
Will these SVG files work in TinkerCAD?
Absolutely! TinkerCAD supports SVG import for creating custom shapes. Import your SVG, and TinkerCAD will extrude it into a 3D object that you can modify and export for 3D printing.
How do I convert SVG to STL for 3D printing?
Import the SVG into CAD software (Fusion 360, TinkerCAD, FreeCAD), extrude the paths to your desired depth, then export as STL. Most CAD programs have a direct 'Export as STL' option for 3D printing.
Can I use these for cookie cutter designs?
Yes! Cookie cutter designs work perfectly with this workflow. Convert your design to SVG, import to CAD software, extrude to 10-15mm height, and export as STL. Print with food-safe filament like PLA.
Will these work for lithophanes?
SVG files work best for solid extrusions. For lithophanes (which require varying thickness based on image brightness), you'll want specialized lithophane software. However, you can use SVG for the outer frame or border of a lithophane.
Do these SVG files work in Blender?
Yes! Blender supports SVG import via File → Import → Scalable Vector Graphics. Once imported, you can convert curves to mesh and extrude for 3D printing or rendering.
Can I sell 3D models made from these SVG files?
Yes! When you convert images with our tool, you can use the resulting SVG files commercially, including creating and selling 3D models for 3D printing.
What types of designs work best for 3D extrusion?
Simple logos, text, icons, and graphics with clear outlines work best. Avoid very complex photos or gradients. Designs with solid shapes and clear boundaries extrude cleanly into 3D models.

Why Use SVG Files for 3D Printing?
Clean Extrusion Geometry
Vector SVG paths extrude cleanly in CAD software without gaps, overlaps, or messy geometry. This results in water-tight 3D models that slice and print reliably without errors.
Precise Scaling
SVG files can be scaled to exact dimensions in CAD software. Perfect for creating precise cookie cutters, keychains, or parts that need to fit specific measurements.
Faster Slicing
Simplified vector paths create less complex 3D models, resulting in faster slicing times in software like Cura, PrusaSlicer, or Simplify3D.
Easy Modifications
Vector paths are easy to edit in CAD software. Adjust curves, add holes, combine shapes, or modify your design before extruding to 3D.
Popular 3D Printing Applications
- Custom cookie cutters
- Keychains and tags
- 3D printed signs
- Logo decorations

Pro 3D Printing Tip
When extruding SVG files in CAD software, use at least 2-3mm depth for cookie cutters and small items. For decorative signs and wall art, 3-5mm works well. Too thin (under 1mm) may result in fragile prints that break easily.
SVG to 3D Print Workflow
- Convert your 2D graphic to SVG using FreeSVGConverter
- Download the optimized SVG file
- Open Fusion 360, TinkerCAD, or your CAD software
- Import the SVG file (Insert → Insert SVG in Fusion 360)
- Select the imported profile/sketch
- Use the Extrude command and set your desired depth
- Export as STL file (File → Export → STL)
- Import STL into your slicer (Cura, PrusaSlicer, etc.)
- Slice and 3D print your model!
