Has anyone else eaten an apple and thought, 'this tastes like a banana' ?
Because the one I'm eating now definitely tastes like a banana.
But I didn't come here to talk about banana-flavoured apples, as interesting as they are.
In the screenshot below, you can see all of the file formats I can open. Does anyone know how to turn .skp Sketchup files into one of these formats? (ignore the bottom one)

My problem is that Fred attempted to make
Xplorer, but doesn't think it looks right (i can't fault it, I don't know what he's on about), so I said I'd have a crack at it. I have Sketchup, and it looks fine:

However, me and SU don't really like each other, so I use a professional program called Solidworks. I downloaded an addon for Solidworks (the only such addon I could find) and tried to open the model. It crashed a few times, but it finally worked and promptly beheaded the good ship Xplorer:

So, I need a way of SU saving the files in a format that Solidworks can use.
HELP ME!!!!
