Converting something to 1/35 scale

All,

I have a question regarding scale. If I wanted to take something say, 6 feet tall and resize it to 1/35th, how do I convert it? Is it just as easy as dividing the 6 feet into 35? I’m no math wiz so I thought I’d ask.

You make 1cm = 35cm on the real thing. So if it is 6 feet = 180cm, in 1/35 it would be 5.14…cm high. You have to get all units the same. Good luck!

Best way? Cheat :slight_smile:

I use Frank Crenshaw’s scale calculator.

Nice little calculator, took me a few minutes to figure it out.

Thanks!
