I wanted to share a little googlefu! If you want to find a dxf file of something specific you can do it with this syntax into your Google search: thing type:.dxf
For example. If I wanted to find a dxf file of a football I can search football type:.dxf -site:pinterest.* -site:etsy.com into google. I added the -site to remove the Pinterest and Etsy from the search results which I highly recommend. Click on the images tab and browse!
I also prefer to search thingiverse this way instead of their own search bar. It’s much faster.
Oh man, pinterest and etsy foul up ALL my searches, and somehow I always forget to exclude them.
First time I saw type: though. I always end up digging through the included filters, which is no fun.
Thanks for sharing!
I made a note of the search term, that will come in handy. On a more important note, I had no idea that there was a chrome extension to do that. This. Changes. Everything. Thank you for mentioning it!
I used to be all about Firefox, but then we got smart phones and I needed a good browser on my phone. It was years before Firefox had something that was usable, and by then I had moved on to Chrome, and further into the Google ecosystem. Now, I like the integration and synchronization of all of my web based tools and services, across all of my devices. An integration that Firefox just cannot match.
