Printing M2 parts STEP to STL?

Post by Neep » Fri Jun 03, 2016 1:54 am

So, I've finally gotten comfortable enough with printing ABS to think about printing off some 'backup' or 'spare' parts for my M2. I found the github repository but it looks like a lot of those files are .STEP files. How do you convert those to .STL files? Anyone? My Googlefu is not really powerful enough for me to figure out a 'free' way to do so.

There are two directories within the github, STEP and STL.

Use the STL ones.
