Out of Scale is a 1951 American animated short film directed by Jack Hannah and produced by Walt Disney.[1] In the episode, Donald Duck has a ride-on sized train layout in his backyard.[2] There's a large tree (home to Chip 'n Dale) that's out of scale, so Donald moves it while they're out; they come back to see their tree moving. No problem; one of Donald's model houses is just their size.

Plot

Donald Duck has invented a miniature scale live steam railroad on his backyard property of everything, only to be annoyed by Chip 'n' Dale while planting miniature scale, who are.

However, he also gets rid of Chip and Dale's tree when it's not in the correct miniature scale for his setup. Realizing what's happened, Chip and Dale try to get the tree back from Donald. During the chase/battle, they race past the miniature village and go into a tiny house. While making themselves comfortable inside (which Donald concludes are both a perfect scale), Donald begins to have some fun by impersonating people & simulating extremes of weather but they figure it out, & the chase continues.

In the end, they reclaim their tree which ends up on the railroad track & the train makes a hole though it, & Donald stops the train planning to tear them apart, but they fool him by putting a "Giant Redwood" sign on the front of the tree and take advantage of this to say it is a scale model of California Giant Redwood with a tunnel.

Satisfied with the explanation, Donald thanks Chip and Dale for their appreciation and he rides his train through the tunnel in a joyful way as the chipmunks celebrate their victory.[3]
