Just looking for a way to get my Solidworks parts into 3D Studio Max 5.1. Hopefully a .3DS export? DXF would work too. Xchangeworks took over my system last time I tried it, so now I'm scared :). Free is always a good thing.

can buy a 3ds export here.
i don't work for them.
I have also used stl without problems.
Although you can use STL file, you have much better control of the file size and mesh with 3D file converter. It is designed to save SW parts and assemblies to many formats,
3DS, LWO,RAW, OBJsee and try it at

Max has an IGES importer available as an add-in.
