Subject: [pes_mxlo] Re: Let's Define Template Instructions Clearly
In the mean time... To get exact sized images. Take the 'photograph' (JPG or what ever) into photoshop or any photo editor. For the stator. Cut away/delete/crop everything outside the black line denoting the outer edge of the template, very close. Now you have only the black outerline and the interior of the template. Most printers print at 300 DPI (dots per inch). So, resize the overall photo size to 10 inches by 3 inches at 300 DPI. A large file. In pixels that is 3000 x 900 pixels. Once resized, it should print almost exactly. If it is way off like 1/2 sized, check that your printer driver is set to print at 300 DPI. If can only be set to 600 DPI, then double all the above numbers. Hopefully this short if not cryptic explanation will help some people. It makes a huge file but it will get you by. I will be glad to include and even produce good versions of these files when I rewrite the
instructions as I mentioned previously. Assuming I get the device to work next week or next
weekend. And I will run the whole thing thru MXLO. I am willing to work with any others
on reviewing the all inclusive instruction file as well. Scale it to exactly 10"x3" inches to the outer black outline on the templates

supplied, As far as 'size', I say scale it to exactly 10"x3" inches to the outer black outline on the templates. The size errors are solely due to different printers and conversion of files, I saw this in my two methods of working with the files. The rations of spacings are 'relative', so I trust it. ---RetroRocket59--- Template Dimensions from MXLO: Stator = 10" x 3"; Rotor = 4" x 1.5"

"When the template is printed the outer black frame of the template should be sized to 10 X 4" I responded to them to verify 'four' inches. They immediately responded: "No that is incorrect. 10 inches by 3 inches on the stator strips. 4 inches by 1-1/2 inch on the rotor. Placement of magnets for both is in the upright order as shown on template. The N, or S, should appear thru center of the ring magnet." Free ems Software for CAD files

the template discrepancies. I would recommend that you download the nice (and free) CAD software from http://emachineshop.com and make a simple square of known dimensions and then see for yourself with your own printer how you need to set it up to print out life-sized dimensions.
