Several step files that show nothing when opened or imported

Rhino Rhino for Windows

I was looking to remix a few items from Thinigiverse. The original creator included step files, but they show nothing when I try to open them. Thoughts?

Male-male.step (473.4 KB)

C-Clamp 80.step (65.1 KB)

I opened them in notepad. They’re not STEP files. Looks like maybe they are github html files for a page that has a link to step files.

Thanks, I went to github and found the folder, but still all the files listed as .tep do not open in Rhino if downloaded.

Hi. I went to the page, clicked on the first file, copy-pasted it to notepad, deleted some stuff at the top and bottom so it starts with

ISO-10303-21;
HEADER;
/* Generated by software containing ST-Developer

and ends with

ENDSEC;
END-ISO-10303-21;

It opened for me. My guess is the extra lines that github adds might be messing things up.

Thanks. Followed your instructions and it worked.

Great. Glad it worked for you.
