Steps for Slice Model plugin in Sketchup to Roland Cut Studio

The steps to cutting these objects out go like this
1)      Make a model in sketchup
2)      Use the SliceModel plugin to have the object cut into pieces determined by the interval between each slice. (The spacing between each slice really depended upon the object, its size, and whether it was sliced by X, Y, or Z)
3) Right click on the object and click export. A series of spacing options come up from which I just continue to click OK through.
4)      Once done, the file is saved and exported into GIMP.
5)      Once opened in GIMP, fill in the area with black, and save it as a .jpeg
6)      Then, your file should be verified within Roland Cut Studio and ready to cut!
