Another approach would be to simply make the node containing this box
a child of a pfDCS node, and then scale the DCS.

If you have many boxes of different sizes, make a single 'unit box'
node the instanced child of many parent pfDCS nodes, and apply
different scaling operations (as appropriate) to each pfDCS.
