>Recently we ordered some really nice prototype knobs and buttons to test a new product design. We were in a hurry and wanted to see and feel the new >shapes and sizes on the product prototype before letting the plastic company build the new expensive injection molding equipment.
>The numbers in our 3D drawings were in centimeters. The 3D printing company thought "Oh, is this millimeters? So tiny objects. No, must be inches!"

>So now we have these huge and heavy knobs and buttons that could only fit a stove or something like that. :-D
