Out of Scale
Out of Scale is a 1951 American animated short film directed by Jack Hannah and produced by Walt Disney. In the episode, Donald Duck has a ride-on sized train layout in his backyard. 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 constructed a miniature scale live steam railroad on his backyard property; while adding more miniature trees to the railroad, he's annoyed by Chip 'n' Dale's tree as it's not in the correct scale for his setup, and promptly removes it. Realizing what's happened, Chip and Dale try to get the tree back from Donald. During the chase, they race past the miniature village and go into a tiny house. Chip and Dale make themselves comfortable inside, while Donald concludes they are both a perfect scale. Donald begins to have some fun by impersonating people & simulating extremes of weather but they figure it out, and the chase continues.
