The usual trick is:

"Scale you've got divided by the scale you want and then multiply the answer by 100 to get % to print it out at."

(I don't remember who I am quoting, I know is some one from this forum, but forgot to copy the name. I just copied the trick to a txt file. Sorry)

By that math, to go from 1/30 to 1/32 the kit must be printed at 93.75

a 1.75% difference doesn't look like much. Maybe just a couple of millimeters.



Edit:
I found the thread discussing scale conversion.
Scales and resizing.

Above I was quoting Piginapoke. Is the last comment in that thread.

Or multiply the first answer by any value or dimension you've got to get the equivalent rescaled value or dimension.
