[1/9] - Model Building Process - Design Stage |
|
Here I introduce the series, tell you what materials you will need, and show you how to draw a blueprint to scale.
IF you have a real blueprint with measurements, and want to convert it to inches, here's how to do that: Take the measurement of a wall, so say a wall is 4' 3" and make it into inches, get rid of the feet. So 4x12 is 48 then add 3, that wall is 51 inches long. You're then going to divide that number by 24. 51/24 is 2.125 inches. The wall on your model will be 2.125 inches long. Yeah, it's a decimal, if you have a better way of doing that, let me know. |
