Help funding Blender in 2026

If Blender helped you with your projects this year, we're asking you to help us back.

For the past year, you've had access to professional 3D software, completely free. No subscriptions, no licenses, no limits. Blender has been there for your projects, your learning, your art, your business.

Today, we're asking for $5.

That's it. If every active Blender user contributed $5 this month, Blender Foundation would meet its entire yearly funding goal for 2026.

Import STL Node¶

The Import STL node imports mesh geometry from a .stl (Stereolithography) file.

STL files are commonly used for 3D printing and CAD applications and contain only surface geometry, typically as a collection of triangles with no color, texture, or other attributes.

This node enables incorporating external STL assets into Geometry Nodes for procedural processing or visualization.

Inputs¶

Path: The path to the .stl file to be imported.

Properties¶

This node has no properties.

Outputs¶

Mesh: The mesh geometry imported from the STL file.
