Hi, How do you convert real life building 10 feet x 15 feet into o scale how many inches? Im Trying to put a building together for train layout. jeff
O Scale is 1:48 ratio which translates to 1/4 inch equals 1 foot. A 10 x 15 building would end up being 2 1/2 " x 3 3/4 " in size.
Hi Phil, Thank you For your help.This seems small compared to buildings that i purchased to o scale. Example Harley Dealership mth product# 30-90111 ----9"w x 9"L x 6"H im trying to recreate a old harley factory from 1903 10'x 15' from photos on the internet.Do i make it 2 1/2 x 3 3/4 or 9" x9" x6" which is still considered o scale by the product box ????????? not sure what to do any suggestions?? jeff
Ten by fifteen is pretty small. Not much larger than a garden shed. I realize many businesses came from a humble start, but that still seems to be on the tiny side.
The original Harley factory was basically a garden shed! Here is a picture - http://www.caimag.com/wordpress/201...n-factory-–-what-happened-to-the-wooden-shed/
