The STEP file in the thing files seems to be correctly formatted and quite usable. What CAD program are you using?

I like to use sketchup or fusion360. But importing STL makes thousands of little triangle areas

In the Thing files of the link you gave there is a file called Diamond_Hotend_Fullcolor.stp (NOTE: this is not .stl)

You should be able import this as solids instead of surfaces in Fusion360 and there is and extension for Sketchup called the SimLab STEP importer that should also work. STL won't work without major effort because STL files are all surfaces.

The provided STP-File is only the Hotend itself. NOT the mount. That's only available in STL.
