Printing objects too small?

Posted · Printing objects too small?

Hey everyone brand new to the whole 3D printing scene, so sorry if this is a stupid question lol. I just downloaded

these "simple ultimaker 2 feet" from thingyverse. I set up the file in CURA, but, when i print the items are tiny. I am not quite sure how i am supposed to know what size this is as no instructions are given on thingyverse. I'm guessing im overlooking some information somewhere or have a setting wrong or something, could someone please point me in the right direction?

    Have a look at the comments in the Thingiverse page. It says that the objects should be scaled by a factor of 10, they made a mistake.

    It's not you - it's them!

        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
