And as Mike says, filetype and measurement units come into the mix too - the safest bet is to create in units as inches or mm for whatever software you use, check the measurements in NetFabb and then upload the model as the units you see works in NetFabb.

Yes to find out what your dimensions are, you can use Netfabb, I was thinking to compare to real world, as in would to see if the size is right to fit as a bracelet, to print it out on an inkjet to see if what's on the screen is as you imagine it. ]]> Youknowwho4eva 2012-08-08T20:12:58-00:00 http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=52388&th=10464#msg_52388

How many times over the last couple of years have we seen 'sizing' questions?
