Most of our Foam builders will use the .PDO files. Pretty much all of the files in our Armory will be in the .PDO format that is designed to be opened with either the free Pepakura Viewer or the paid Pepakura Designer. Files can be scaled up in either program, but changes to the file cam only be saved in the paid Designer. PDO files can can also be opened with armorsmith. The files in the Armory that have been edited and optimized and are intended for use with EVA will have FOAM in the file name, but it is possible to take the normal. PDO files for normal pepakura and use them with foam as well.


We have a lot of great tutorials on using Pep and Foam in tutorial index:

If you get a 3d printer, you're going to want to look for STL and OBJ files for 3d printing. Generally you'll see more STL
