How Can I Export a Lathe Geometry as an STL File Using Your Exporter?

I created a lathe exporter that builds a lathe geometry based on its x and y coordinates and can export it as a .stl file.
You can check out the project on GitHub:

The repository page provides more details on how the exporter works. For example, here's the project image fetched from GitHub:

You can also view a screenshot of the exporter in action:

I appreciate you sharing your lathe exporter project. While I can't directly access or verify the GitHub repository or images you've shared, I can provide some context about exporters in Three.js that might be relevant to your work.
Three.js Exporters
Three.js provides several built-in exporters that allow developers to save 3D models in various formats:
- DRACOExporter
- EXRExporter
- GLTFExporter
- OBJExporter
- PLYExporter
- STLExporter
Your project appears to be focused on creating a specialized exporter for lathe geometries that outputs to the STL format, which is commonly used for 3D printing. This is a valuable addition to the existing exporters in Three.js.
The STL format is particularly well-suited for 3D printing applications, so your tool could be especially useful for creating custom rotational parts that need to be physically manufactured.
If you're looking to contribute your exporter to the Three.js community or seeking feedback on your implementation, you might consider reaching out through the official Three.js forums or GitHub repository.
