I like this idea very much and I'm trying to implement it in a small project that has a couple of test stl files. One problem I have is the stl files cannot be displayed on my githubverse page, although the bed grid does display correctly (you can see the page here)

There seems to be a problem with the Thingiview renderer, but when I try and load your stl file locally in thingiview direct then it works. I'll have a look further tomorrow.

Ok, I just realised the problem. The STL file is in binary format, and because I use the loadSTLString method to load the file in thingiview it doesn't work. I'll try and think of a solution tomorrow, in the mean time if you want to get it looking nice you could try generating the stl files as ascii.

Converted the stl files to ascii and they now show properly.
