however, whenever it gets that small the model messes up and i can't zoom in close enough.

Make sure that the component/group origin stays in the near of the world origin while scaling with the scale tool.

I've tried scaling the 1:1 model by inputting 0.001 and it gets way to small to do anything.

1:300 results in a scale factor of 0,00333333333333333333333333333333... so it will be hard to enter it exactly

This many is treasure who earned our support.

One fast way...

Impressive work!

One way...

• Smooth edges
• scale old topo with Vertextools and scale factor 0
• combine textures
• make a projected texture
• assign to new topo faces

Great results!

Very clever workflow, thanks for sharing!

Does your 3D-printer print true color?

I always love those "from model to real" projects, especially when they are so appealing.

Anton's Fixit101

It's a very underrated plugin, isn't it?

Thanks for sharing the name of the soften plugin!

"Soften" is a custom toolbar or an available plugin?

lovely mesh...

Nice model!
(But I would prefer a much bigger door lock here )

You can change the orientation of te gizmo already with the right click context menu

I think "little" is the wrong word here...

VERY NICE!
Thank you for sharing. After the support structure image, I didn't expect such a clean result.
