AutoCAD - Plotting (Printing) Tutorial
A beginner's guide to plotting (printing) in AutoCAD. This tutorial also covers the basics of using viewports in Paper Space and inserting titleblocks.

patch of solid blue hatch behind the objects you are printing, or another
option is to print to PDF and then do some colour manipulation in

Iron Man helmet Pepakura tutorial Part 1 (software, scaling, printing and building)
Here is the first part in creating your own pepakura iron man helmet sorry for not using fraps for the software will use it next time, if you would like to see how to ...
+John McDonagh Thank you! Basically anything around the thickness of 175 like I used should be fine as long it it is thicker than regular writing/ printer paper and more along the lines of card then it will hold it's shape and retain the resin just fine.
Yes the video was made and t had problems so I've actually made another helmet and got it to the same point to make the video again plus it will be much better and informative I'm hoping to get it all out together in the next few days so stay tuned! There will be a lot of progress on my armour before the end of the year and I will be videoing as much as I can so stay tuned and sorry it's taken so long! Thanks for watching

hey i've been watching your tutorials on the iron man suit! quick question
, when you print it out , do you adjust the paper settings to A4? Because
mine is standard on a 'Letter' format. Do I keep it in letter paper size ?
Or adjust it to A4? thanks!
Thanks so much ! one last question : What size was your helmet ? I mean in centimeters ? Because the guy I'm measuring it for has 24 centimeters ( from front to back ) and 19 centimeters sideways. Could this be correct ? Do I adjust the helmet entrance to these measurments ? Sorry to bother you , but it's the first time working with pepakura :-) Thanks for helping us out! And are these gonna fit on A4 ?
the same goes for the gloves or each individual part as it does with the whole armor. same method. it is all trial and error though so try the method and see how it goes :)
+StarksWarehouse yes, but i'll be copying it on a foam later. But i still didnt understand the scaling part.... How to scale the gloves... Cuz the link you gave me tells only about scaling the "whole" armor. Thanks for replying :)
