Could someone please scale the image to 8.5 x 11 paper and post it to the y-axis wiki page, please? I've been trying to do the scaling myself and getting more and more frustrated!

a lot of programs think you want the image scaled to paper size, and give no option to print actual size. I even tried Gimp with a bunch of different settings and that was what frustrated me. (of course this was with the original, not yours)

The PDF works, however, so i'm happy now]]> Buback General Mendel Topics Wed, 29 Sep 2010 15:41:59 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?151,61444,61470#msg-61470 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?151,61444,61470#msg-61470 -------------------------------------------------------

Exactly. I knew I saw the simplified frog somewhere but it's not in the wiki, and I couldn't find a direct link or remember who posted about it. Should have known it was Nophead :-). At least now it can be found with a search of the forums, if all else fails.

It printed as 199.5 x 136.5 (close enough). The standard is listed as 148 mm wide, but I guess he just made it a bit narrower. All the cutouts check out though so this will be perfect.

I am very slow to anger, or even to annoy, but something about this just enraged me!

Nice, but that's on A4 paper. the OP's asking for something on Letter size paper.]]> pica General Mendel Topics Wed, 29 Sep 2010 15:26:20 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?151,61444,61467#msg-61467 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?151,61444,61467#msg-61467 www.thingiverse.com] I don't understand why you need to scale it though. It should come out actual size, regardless of the paper size, assuming it fits on.

Then I rotated it, merged it with a 8.5x11 layer, and printed it locally as a PDF. My printer is broken right now, so I can't verify it's the proper size.

Leave comments on the thread if it works.]]> pica General Mendel Topics Wed, 29 Sep 2010 14:49:06 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?151,61444,61452#msg-61452 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?151,61444,61452#msg-61452 "squashed frog" blog post, but I don't see a file to convert. I assume you want to print one out on letter size paper, paste it to some store-bought MDF and "scroll saw" it out.

I've been bothered by the lack of a letter sized template myself, but I instead bought a laser-cut version on ebay, so it dropped off the to-do list.]]> pica General Mendel Topics Wed, 29 Sep 2010 14:12:07 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?151,61444,61451#msg-61451 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?151,61444,61451#msg-61451
I'll try to take a stab at what you are requesting, but could you toss me a link to the original version?]]> pica General Mendel Topics Wed, 29 Sep 2010 14:05:20 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?151,61444,61444#msg-61444 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?151,61444,61444#msg-61444
