To answer the issues that people have been having about size if you slicer allows import with inches as the default. If now import into something like tinkerCad with inches as default and then take to your slicer. Hope this helps it worked for me.

Sorry….in my last post I indicated scaling to 2540mm…that would be incorrect…it is scaled to 2540%not mm. Again, I apologize.

When you open the stl files in slicer you have to click on the part (which in most cases is very tiny at the center of the build platform) then you have to scale the part to 2540mm. Then you can prepare it and slice it…Save it to a file or send it to the printer. Just as a note, some of the parts came in very tiny and others were scaled at 10000mm….be surer to scale all parts at 2540.

You need to post some information on who to print the parts. Reading them into the slicer they are so small they are almost invisible. I am going to try to scale them x 1500 but have no idea what will fit engine etc. Typically people sharing designs give some cryptic directions on how to print the design
