Hi folks i have a question...if i have the tumblers pepakura body panels,is there a way to get them enlarged to vertually exact size,i have no idea on the scale at the moment,so i was thinking get them enlarged and use them as a basic template,fold lines will be cut and that will be were the welds will go kinda,so basicly using these placed onto sheet metal to draw round,cut out with a plasma cutter along with lots of photos and a nice detaild model.thanks

| Pepakura can scale your files up in size. There is a certain "multiplier"? that needs to be used based on the size / scale that you want. You can google search on the number you need to scale up your model. I believe there is a forum post on here about the process somewhere. Once you find the right scale number you can print the pages off on 8.5 x 11 paper with alignment marks. Look at one of BRCEWAYNES posts when he started his tumbler.
