 Subject:  Re: conversion from 'fraction' scale to 'mm' scaleList thread.  
  
 Date:  Jan 17, 2003
 From:  Warrink 
Actually, 120mm is closer to 1/15 scale (the scale that Verlinden
Productions quote for their 120 mm kits). Whoever made it up must have
set the average height of a man to 180 cm, and divided it by 15, which
makes 120 mm.
Using this method 1/16 scale should be 112,5 mm.

FWIW,

Eelke Warrink
