Windows 10: In Paint 3D, where is this supposed "Export" Option?

I was trying to find the Paint 3D projects I was building, but they were not on OneDrive it is empty, in %localdata%, or in 3D Objects. So I found a response that suggested how to export the projects to my file system, here: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/apps_windows_10-win_paint3d-win_start3d/saving-in-paint-3d-to-regular-folders/5f95b61c-328f-4f48-a075-350556078c94


That might work, IFF I could find an "Export" option - it is not in the menu - only Save which saves to the current mystery location and Save As which saves to the same mystery location, under a different name.


Frankly, this app is useless to me, because I've spent more time trying to answer this question than I have actually creating objects.


I'm going to save what I have so far as JPGs, where I can get at them. Then, creating the variations I need basically, images of PVC fittings in different sizes and combinations will be possible but more time consuming.
