                        Scale conversion
                        Posted by ADleitch on Thursday, April 10, 2003 9:52 PM
                        I can't for the life of me remember the formula for converting measurments from one scale to another i.e 1/100 to 1/350. I have some very good plans coming from France and need to convert measurements to 1/350.
                        Can anyone help?

                        Thanks

                        To change from 1/100 to 1/350 for example:

                        If something in 1/100 scale is 5 inches... to find out how long it would be in 1/350..

                        5 X 100/350 = new dimension of the model.

                        Is that what you mean?
