Dear lazyweb: how do I turn a STEP file into a #FreeCAD part? I'm trying to learn how to use the assembly tool, but I can't even seem to get that far. All I want to do is:
1. Import STEP file of a 2040 extrusion.
2. Scale it to right length.
3. Make a part I can use in an assembly.
Help very much appreciated!
