I'm trying to work through my first 3D print, following
http://wiki.makerbot.com/google-sketchup .

I know SketchUp and my model is simple (
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6784911/Selector%20Foot%20Shelf.skp ), so I started
there, then turned it into STL (
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6784911/Selector%20Foot%20Shelf.stl ) and tried to
run Skeinforge.  But it says:

Temperature procedure took 0 seconds.
This should never happen, the base layer has a size of zero.
This should never happen, the interface layer has a size of zero.
This should never happen, the interface layer has a size of zero.
Zero length loop which was skipped over, this should never happen.
Raft procedure took 0 seconds.

And produces six empty layers with messages like:

Warning, there are no coloredLines in setLineButtonsState in tableau for
the layer:
6

I found meshlab and it can open the STL file, which looks like I expect.  
So I don't know where to go next, the STL seems valid but I can't turn it
into GCode.
