strange, it works here;
anyhow, you use very smalls numbers and (0.017mm) on the one end and big
ones later on, and somehow you end up with a boundingbox of 32K bp which is
pretty large,
The solution is in changing some dimensions: roughly design at the size you
want and use xysized(..,..) to scale thing sto proportions
