File management

File management and file naming:
I created separate folders:
One for the original model files (.stl etc..)
One for created build files that I am planning to build (.cubex)
One for the build files that I have printed (.cubex)
I name the build files with the part description, build resolution, part density, raft, support, color, material, size scaling.
For example:
Dinoegg_0.25_medium_raft_support_blue_pla_75perc.cubex

If I did not use raft or support then I don't list it in the file name.

This helps me quickly to find a file for reprinting and know what settings were used.
