ReplicatorG: Cannot see object after importing stl file from Blender

Have you ever tried to import an STL into ReplicatorG and found that the object was miniscule?  This usually happens when the object was saved as an STL in inches, rather that millimeters.

It takes 25.4mm to equal 1 inch.  All you have to do is scale the object up by a factor of 25.4 and you’re ready to go!
