Hey all!

Does anyone know what the approximate dimensions would be for a 1/16 metal oil drum, similar to these :



Thanks in advance!

Those are patterned after ordinary 55-gallon drums. I don't have any 1/35 sample in front of me to measure, but if you measure yours, take each measurement and multiply it by 2.1875.

Or, if you have access to the real thing, measure it and divide by 16 .
