Looking for some help with converting an STL to model


Recommended Posts

Hey Guys and Gals,

 

Looking for a bit of help since my 3d skills are lacking.  Would someone be able to help me convert the following from Thingiverse to either a blender or fusion model.  I'm looking to use this for an Arduino/Pico project, will need to hollow it out and add mounting posts.

I'm not sure you'd have any luck with that task. I've tried to import an stl file into solidworks before on a couple occasions and it basically has to reverse engineer the part. One of the problems with this is that you end up with a very messy, very bloated project file and the conversion for even simple parts takes a long time and significant resources.

You would be better off remodeling the part from scratch or reaching out to the author and asking for the project file.

If i have time later I'll take a look and see if it wouldnt be too hard to recreate in OnShape (free web based cad).
