How to take actual measurements of an armored vehicle and reduce it to 1:60 scale?
I'm making a scaled target for use in army training. I have line drawings of a flank tank and frontal tank on my computer so i can edit the size easily. I also have the actual tank measurements (height and width). I want to make the line drawings 1:60 scale so they can be cut out and use for target training.
What is the formula i need to use to?
The ratio "1:60" represents "1 scale-unit = 60 actual-units".
If you have actual-unit measurements, then divide each by "60" to get the scale-unit measurement (which you use to layout your cut-outs).
