Decompiling/Converting STL file into SCAD file (1 reply)

Hi all,

Is there any way to "decompile" or convert STL file into SCAD file?

I found very cool object, nuts and bolts, in Thingverse, but they only come in STL file and IPT file. It seems like IPT is a format for some other CAD program, which I don't have.

I wanted to make the bolt a little longer than the original design. Fortunately, it seems like there are other designs of nuts and bolts in Thingverse, some of which comes in SCAD format.

However, it made it me wonder if SCAD file can be decompiled/converted from STL file. I would like to know how, if that's possible. I am pretty sure I will come across an object or two (most likely a lot more) which I only have STL files for but need to make some slight modifications.

Thank you.
