Julia Posted July 24, 2010 Share Posted July 24, 2010 Has any one experience building scalescenes kits in HO scale? Which size card did you use? For OO, the recommendation seems to be 1mm board or 2mm board, what would the equivalent be in HO? J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rammy Posted July 24, 2010 Share Posted July 24, 2010 Julia I may be wrong but I would guess you could still use the 1 or 2mm. If my calculations are correct, the HO equivalents would be 0.875mm and 1.75mm. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Oldddudders Posted July 24, 2010 RMweb Gold Share Posted July 24, 2010 I may be wrong but I would guess you could still use the 1 or 2mm. If my calculations are correct, the HO equivalents would be 0.875mm and 1.75mm. Plenty of HO structures, people, trees etc lend themselves to strategic use in OO, and vice versa. OO is 1:76, HO is 1:87 and so for constructional purposes Rammy is spot on - what works for one will work for the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scalescenes Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 All the card thicknesses recommended in the instructions for OO can be used for a HO reduction as a certain amount of variation has been factored into the kits (scale pages down 87%, usually an option in your print setup box). Happy modelling! John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
