michaelp Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 As part of a quayside scene I am building I need some lifebelts to place along the wharf, I know that Langley Models have a set of lifebelts as does Cornwell Model Boats but does anyone know what the lifebelt diameter would need to be for 4mm modelling? Any advice would be great. Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bon Accord Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Michael, Lifebuoys are usually about 2 1/2' in diameter, correspondingly that comes to 10mm in OO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
