Thanks guys! I made those models in Autodesk Inventor, and that's a COMPLETELY different kettle of fish when compared to the polygon mesh editors that are commonly used in CG imaging. Never did I expect this to work, but to my amazement it was possible to export .stl mesh files that actually work! In case you're not familiar with engineering-oriented modelers like Inventor: they work with 3D 'solid objects' (not the AutoCad kind), which have very little in common with the vertices and faces that 3D mesh editors produce. Man, am I glad this works! Modeling hard-surface geometry is sooooo much easier with solids than meshes. Organic modeling on the other hand is neigh on impossible with solids, so this way I can have the best of both worlds, Yeehaw!
