00 to TT 120

[daryll]

there are quite a few 00 gauge card kits you can down load and print , so my question is what percentage do to reduce the print to make them TT 120 scale

 

cheers

It depends on how your printer calculates it, but a linear reduction (which is the way my Epson printer works) is 62.5% of 00 size.

As above its 2.5 (mm) divided by 4 (mm) which is 0.625 or 62.5 percent on a calculator, scratch builders may prefer long division using pen and paper.

If you are working with TT (1/120) scaled accurately as 2.54mm/ft, then it will be 63.5%.
