Is there a reason people don’t include step files when posting everything? Some of us have full blown machine shops and dealing with the conversion from .STL to .STEP is just not worth my time for these projects that I am interested in.

It would be really cool if everybody could just post the other format which only takes like 20 seconds extra if possible.

It would really go a long way to getting these made in metal.

Much appreciated. I’m also a certified .stl file type hater so if I’m not in the majority here, I’ll take my roasting.

    I always include STEP files.

    I think some people don’t know that STEP is more useful. Other people “in the know” do it because they don’t want others to be able to easily edit the design and release new or better versions.
