I used http://meshlab.sourceforge.net/ to save as a dxf then inot acad. Cambam will also import dxf meshes for tool path and produce gcode
I have put both dxf's in the rar ( winrah)

Artcam Pro can import 3DS files. You can scale, rotate and position 3DS model any way you want. Then you can machine it with your choice of bits.
