Many of the stl files are exported in incorrect measurements;
examples :
rifles/AR-15_Reinforced_Lower_Reciever_THOR_IV_version/stl/V4_assy
rifles/AR-15_Reinforced_Lower_Receiver

some do provide the SolidWorks file - but the online trial does not allow import of local files; and I don't have solidworks license.
Some will say - just scale by 2540% - but - I'm not really confident that the export was done in mm or CM ( that's a ton of filament to guess on )

Is it possible to export the solidwork files to a STEP - or something more opensource friendly ?

If you come up with a list which ones need resizing and what not by dimension I can sit when I got time and resize and export to something open source friendly...

I do have solidworks...though I need to learn the software...i have a few bullet molds I wanna design and release on here...something for casting in aluminum or brass sort of stuff. So I might be a bit slow with such a list.
