Here's screen shots, I made DXF's of both, PM me your email so I can send you the DXF's.

It's worth noting, I did this with the EAA $36 a year Solidworks.
The subscribed version I have of Fusion360 refused to make drawings of the IGS files, says they contained no sketches, and not solid bodies. Solidworks didn't seem to care.Comment

About the same amount of time to do it in Fusion 360
This is just the headstock:

I have to ask... are those actual geometry files, or just sheet views? There is a huge difference.*** I always wanted a welding stinger that looked like the north end of a south bound chicken. Often my welds look like somebody pointed the wrong end of a chicken at the joint and squeezed until something came out. Might as well look the part.Comment

If you zoom way in on the .dxf are there 7.2 gigabazzillion tiny line segments & microscopic points all over the drawing & then when you get all those deleted you find out that the main vectors are of square a tiny bit and the drawing is scaled up by 3.997654:1? I think there was raster/vector conversion going on or some such sorcery.Milton

In Fusion 360, you make a 'Drawing' of the model, then save that as a dxf. (This capability is being removed from the free version soon, much to the irritation of a lot of users.) You can also export a dxf from a sketch which requires projecting the geometry to the sketch.Originally posted by RB211 View PostComment

Tried it, wouldn't let me. You must of used the other file format.Originally posted by elf View PostComment

I scaled it up 4 to 1, these are sheet views. But should suffice for a parts locator.Originally posted by DICKEYBIRD View PostComment

In CB I just imported the STP of the spindle body (head stock), selected all the surfaces, and moved them to a hidden layer. Actual workable geometry of the surface edges remained visible. That's how I got the 3D line drawing shown in post #10. In VC I can select any part to export by itself.
There are what I believe are little indescrepancies in the original 3D model. They may be deliberate or they may be incidental.Last edited by Bob La Londe; 09-26-2020, 10:25 PM.*** I always wanted a welding stinger that looked like the north end of a south bound chicken.
