Hi, i have been using the solid edge STL importer, and ive recently encountered a problem. My solid edge freezes up whenever i try to open an stl file with my STL Importer addon.

Does anyone have this addon? If you do, could you please help me and convert it to a part file for me?

I created this model in sketchup. If there is any other way, or workaround, to get sketchup to import to solidworks or solidedge, please let me know.

Thanks alot! The one thing thats bugging me is the triangles in the concave.

This is going to be a clamping compression mold to make skateboards, and i think the triangles might leave impressions in the wood.

The triangles are resultant of low quality settings in the program that saved the stl
You will have to save it using a HQ setting or massage your surfaces in SW.
