    If you work in millimetres for both the real size and the scale size, the calculations are straightforward. Your scale factor is whatever scale you're working in. So for 1/35, the scale factor is 35; for 1/72, the scale factor is 72; for 1/350, the scale factor is 350 and so on. When you know your scale factor, you can use these:

    Model size (in mm) = Real size (in mm) divided by scale factor.

    Real size (in mm) = Model size (in mm) multiplied by scale factor.

    If you're stuck remembering which way round, why not print these out and stick 'em on the wall by your bench?

        ta Dave , that helps as for some reason i wound to put the 1.??, dont know why but just do.

        some thinks im good with other oh think you can guess lol,

        like using paint in win 7 or some think ,just cannot get right ,but to make stuff im good,

        maybe to mean slaps around the head from the bobby when you,

        cannot not be truer if i say so, and I,m one who likes things quick so this build will be slower than the last,

        but just take my time and don't lose that flow of thing,s

        were did you get your,s from ?

        maybe the same place, ?

        Im waiting on dragon online to send the postage invoice,so it can be shipped, with they ask on my saturday night for a whole $ 5.50 postage just sent it lol,

                          well hears todays update was able to get a few hr,s in so spent that doing what i hate the most ,windows,

                          so fiddly there are, but mostly done just all the capping bits to do,

                          and made a start on the roof which will be done in slate tiles so there is about adays worth of work,

                          so hope your all enjoying it,

                                well got in a few good hr,s this morning, so hears a bit of an update,

                                got all the slate tiles cut and on which is good, and its not to bad I,think,

                                always under the watchful eyes of mr tom cat, well maybe not watching but always close by,

                                and got some color on the street , so its taking shape,slowly

                                hope your liking it,

                                as vamp and I are loving it
