How do the dimensions of blender models translate into the physical dimensions of 3D prints?

If you have your scale applied correctly, and you export it using the correct scale value, then it’ll come out as whatever the dimensions you set are. So a 20x20x20cm cube would be just that…

Once you have set your UNITS …either Inches or Millimeters…
And you APPLY SCALE any time you change the mesh…so it remains at 1x1x1 for scale.

Export with scale at 1.00 to STL

Import to your slicer…Check scale
