  <description><![CDATA[Be careful when you upload. Say you created a 3x3x3 box. Since a stl only contains mesh, not scene data could be problems. SW has 3 options in the stl dimension lengths, mm, m and inch. If you want the box to print at 3cm cubed, you will need to scale it by 10 apply scale, export, chose mm at upload.<br />
 There is a technique where you can use Scene units. Click Meter under Scene tab. Open N panel, under Dimensions replace each value(should be 3m) by 3cm for the 3x3x3box Apply scale.<br />
To check, now click None in scene unit value. Look at the dimension values, .03 x .03 x.03(its in blender units) Now when you upload select meters, since .03 <font color="darkblue">m</font>= 30mm= 3cm<br />
<br />
 The real fun is when you import a file that contains a file format that has scene data.<br />
