    When it gets imported, it will always place the object at the 0,0,0 point so make sure you zoom all the way out. If you're having trouble getting one, let me know which one you're looking for and I'll save it as a DWG for you.

    You might first open the file in Notepad and make sure it is ACIS v7 or earlier. Autodesk products will only read up to ACIS v7 (*.sat files).

    In any case, it should only take 5-10 minutes to create these parts and good practice on easy stuff. What are you having difficulty with (zip and attach dwg attempt).
    i opened it and found this

    SolidWorks(2006233)-Sat-Convertor-2.0 14 ACIS 15.0.5 NT 24 Mon Feb 19 15:51:59 2007

    So the file is ACIS v15 and you will not be able to open it in AutoCAD. Attach the file here for someone to convert it to v7.

    Wouldn't it be easier to simply create a couple of extrudes and revolve and be done?

    In a nutshell, I create 3D models from the client's CAD files or design sketches, which I then use to produce high quality rendered images. Click on the link in my signature to view my portfolio. I'm always looking for work, so let me know if you need any renders. :)
