Since the scale of the object was determined by lining up the real life grid, the printed
part should be approximately the same as the original piece, so all that is left is to

, export the object and print it out and compare
it with the original.
The original object is still a little messy after being used as a stamp, but the new one
will take its place nicely.
Full disclosure, this part is actually too big based on the provided
grid. Centimeter graph paper was not available, so quarter inch graph
paper was used instead. In order to make it work after modeling, the
part simply needs to be scaled (
S
) down in the x and y axis (
Shift
+
Z
)
by
0.63
units to fit the physical part. The shape is still perfect and the
technique is sound, just the scale is wrong but fixable.
