Scale

I have question, my kids have asked me to build some buildings and roads for their Hotwheels, I know the cars are about 1:64 scale, so how do I convert other models that arnt that scale to 1:64, it doesnt have to be exact just close enough. I have downloaded a lot of stock to build for them from alot of mini gaming sites most of which are scaled to the green plastic army men which I know are 2.5 cm or an inch in height. thanks for the help

Hi,

25mm is about 1/72.

72 : 64 x 100 = 112,5

That means, you shold have to print with 112,5 %, to reach 1/64

Or another oportunity, 2 Meters in origin are 31,25mm in 1/64. A door (in Europe) has abot 2 meters in high....so you take the high of one of the doors, and you know, where to go...:D
