Enjoying my #NetBSD side quest, but did not spot a slicer in #pkgsrc. Any suggestions?

@bpl When 3D printing, there's a piece of software that takes the model and preps it for printing, usually with tweaks for specific printers and filament. Because it's printed in layers, it's usually called a slicer.
