<DIV dir=auto>>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.</DIV>
<DIV dir=auto>>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!"</DIV>
<DIV dir=auto><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV dir=auto>>So now we have these huge and heavy knobs and buttons that
could only fit a stove or something like that. :-D</DIV>
