Title: Changing model scale
Post by: gleason on March 18, 2006, 03:46:43 AM

Hi!

I currently have several model plans, and am looking at changing
the scale for some of them.

For instance, one model is 40 inches long, and I would like it to be
24 inches long.

How do I go about changing the plan dimensions, etc...

Thanks in advance for any and all info...

In answer to my own question, I found the following resources:

Copier percentages for converting between scales
http://www.mksmc.co.uk/hintsandtips/scales.htm

Scale Conversion Chart

If anyone has additional resources, please feel free to post them.

Thanks.
