I'm getting settled into the new place. The last couple of days have
been spent unloading boxes and finding homes for dishes, books, etc.
It was during this time that the washing machine and car both decided
that they needed to become "troublesome". Ugh. Still, probably by the
end of this weekend the house will look somewhat organized and I can
focus again on PythonCAD.

As you note there hasn't been any menu/dialog created to adjust the
drawing scale, so by default everything is 1:1. In addition to cooking
up a dialog for setting the scale, I'd like to have the scale factor
being displayed all the time on the drawing window.
