Maya for 3D Printing - Rapid Prototyping
In this course we're going to look at something a little different, creating technically accurate 3D printed parts.

You will have to Export them as .DXF or .dwg files from AutoCAD. Maya can import these file types. But I'm not sure how well it will import certain data types (Surface data) It may have to be a specific data type (Recognized). Like Nurbs.

Just do a Google search.

"Yes."
