Help with shape3d export to IGES

General Discussion

After years of working with dedicated surfboard machines to precut blanks for my own designs, I am looking at moving to a new machine. I want to run a test cut with a company who cuts for the automotive industry, but he requires files in IGES format so he can generate his own G-code and cutting paths.

I don’t want to shell out for the Shape3d export program just to run one test cut (even though the program is reasonably priced). I’d apprciate it mightily if anyone help me out and export one of my S3d files to IGIS so I can see how the 4 axis machines cuts.

Thanks
