How do you create a solid part from an IGES file?

I had a look at your data file, and while it's an IGES file, the information it contains is known as a point cloud. With some research into point clouds, and you can see what formats either software package supports. With some luck your CMM machine can generate the right format for you.

I've never created a part from a point cloud data, but I know that it can be done. Good luck!

Thanks for the help, it's for a university project due next week. It's only a small part of it so I'll just explain the problems with it and have a bash at modelling it later.
