Here's a Gift to All !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I found the drawing while going through some old Disks from my Highschool days (only 10 yrs ago) #:-) #:-) I've converted it to a Jpg format . The FACTIONS are rounded to the Closest to the actual decimal place.

Very helpful.
Thanks Matt
Makes me wonder if one of these in 1/16th scale might be of any value to the figure guys.
If so, I'd be happy to make one up.

How does it work? Do you have to multiply the full or the 1/35 scale?

A 1/4" in 1/35 scale is .0071" in Full size and on down the line. Multiply your Full size Measurement by .028571428 to get it in 1/35 scale

Excellent idea and post. Im sure all will find useful. I have a special calculator, that
does conversions automaticlly that I use all the time. I have all the conv. factors saved in it.
Having this chart posted @ the bench will come in handy. THANX

Well the nice thing about the metric system is, you take the real value and just divide by 35 et voila.

But wasn't the US going to switch over in 2006?
