I see the “spinning” view in browser, but I don’t see an option to download the STLs.

Edit: It appears the usdz AR file can be converted to obj/stl files.

Each of the models is available in fbx, usdz and glb if you dig a bit in the page. It's in a json file named masters

I wanted to try printing one but so far all of them seem like they’d be kind of disturbing to display in my house.

Fill the base with concrete and use it as a bookend?

True. I’ll give it a try. They really didn’t think about supports when they designed this thing.

Let me know how it goes! I might try this as well.

Does anyone know where the STL/OBJ files for the 3d models are at?

Check your browser console, network tab, search for .glb and you can directly download them.

Look for the file named masters, it's a json file that contains the filenames for those formats: glb usdz fbx

Great use of WebXR.

Works well both on the Vision Pro (USDz format) and Meta Quest (glTF binary format).

That being said without the right mediation, without some context... unless you already are an expert in the domain what's the point?
