Or download the guitar-list dxf/stl plug in. It's a little wonky but
works.

ViaCad will import Sketchup files. I've done a few projects using files
from the old Sketchup file library back when Google still had it. Does
that still exist?

Last one I did was 3D emboss (raised) of some roses on a little aluminum
box as a fun trinket for my wife. Ran it on my slow mill and it took
all day.

Imported .skp file and exported an .stl file which I used in CamBam.
Did the dimensional adjustments so it would look good for the
application in CamBam. I never checked if it would export them as
better geometry files like .stp, but ViaCad native format files can be
exported in a number of different formats including stl stp iges, and
several others.

Now solidpart files are a pain. I have to use Fusion360 for those.
