          Tried it...non runner

          The input must be...

          step,stp,iges,igs

          to get...

          step,iges,vrml,stl

          πŸ˜’

          I did find this...

          Solveering LLC - InStep Software

          (www.solveering.com)

          But it's not playing nice 😞

              .skp, .obj, .stl, basically anything that I can currently convert a .skp to ATM.

              I tried to convert in Rhino from .obj but it's not happening for me.

                  According to Wikipedia iges was a DOD standard some time ago and thus many cad programs can out put it. Quick check of the Double CAD I have loaded will import and save that format so maybe you go direct form SU to iges?

                    I have used PolyTrans/NuGraf from Okino to convert iges and step etc files to Lightwave (or SketchUp), but I've never tried the other way around.
                    When importing those files I get a lot of options for details etc, so I thought they were not originally polygonal models.

                      I saw that in my hunting.

                      My only option is to start again and model in NURBS.

                        I just had a look at my Okino setup.
                        I have the Granite pack, but apparently that is only for importing, which is what I've used it for.
                        Sorry, but then I can't help you..
