Hey all - I am looking for someone to help me with modifying an existing .stl file.

The job entails ensuring that 4 of the holes in the item are of a specific size. I do not have the ability to do it accurately.

For someone who knows what they are doing I would think this would take a few minutes at most.

I am looking to pay for these services, but the end result must be correct.

Please shoot me an inbox message to discuss. - Thanks!

Modifying STL files are a pain, at best. You can either use a mesh tool like MeshMixer, or if the STL is not too large and is watertight, you can import it as a body into a CAD program and difference with a cylinder of the appropriate diameter to widen the holes. If the size difference you want is not too large, the holes are oriented in the XY plane, and you don't care too much about the exact dimensions of other features/outline, you can use S3D's horizontal size compensation: https://forum.simplify3d.com/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=2042

Thank you Jsc.

Someone has contacted me to work on this, so I am good for the time being.
