STL too small #56

Closed dippythedinosaur closed 8 years ago

dippythedinosaur commented 8 years ago

Hi, I love your program (v1.1.1.486) , but when I try to create an STL file, the fin is tiny. Using the default settings creates the attached fin. When I view this in sketchup or Autodesk 123D the product is super small. I double checked the file using http://www.viewstl.com/ and it shows that it is super small too.

Is there an error with the STL output? Tim

Nope, the STL in exported in meters, the SI unit for length. Using tools like OpenSCAD, you can easily scale it by a factor 1000 to get millimeters.

Glad you like finFoil, unfortunately development has stalled a bit due to a lack of donations and too many businesses contacting me for free help.
