Hi Michael,

If you have Solidworks then just reopen the file and “Save As” a STL file.

Or just send us the file and we will convert it for you.

Here’s the link to our hub:

I’m completely new at all of this, but is it possible to make a STL file from a photograph .jpg? For instance a STL of someones head from a photograph? Thanks -AC

Michael,

Do you still need assistance with this?

Hi Stinkyac, I do not believe so, there is likely more to do with it.

Hi Wade, I am all set, thank you for asking!

And to everyone else who has offered support, much appreciated!

You can just export from solidworks itself, go to ‘Save As’ and select STL as file type. Be carefull to not export as high resolution if this is not needed. More information on http://help.solidworks.com/2012/English/SolidWorks/sldworks/HIDD_STL.htm

It’s not a simple thing, but I imagine it is possible. I know EA sports games let you upload a front and profile pic and it creates a version of you in the game (but the detail isn’t great). You are probably better off finding someone local with a scanner and scanning your head!
