Busch Kramer Bandsaw

[Cordy]

Not sure what size it is;

I can't work out Scale: 1:87

here

 

[sunnybob]

just multiply. 1" actual is 87" in real life.
The rear wheels would be about 4ft tall, making the bandsaw around 10 ft tall.
10 ft is 120" Divide that x 87.
that makes a 1/87 scale to be 1.37" tall on the model.

Its a tiddler.

Thanks Bob; I can actually follow your explanation

 

[sunnybob]

All those 1/72 scale airfix kits werent a waste of my pocket money after all (lol).

It's a H0 model railways model. H0 scale is just about 3.5mm to the foot, whereas 00 gauge is 4mm to the foot, if that's of any interest!

I'm sure someone will pop along and recommend Tuffsaws if you need a teeny blade for it. :-D

Messaged and asked what total height

reply;--

Message from: opahackie
HEIGHT: 20 mm



...which is less than one English inch :?

 

[sunnybob]

if 1 = 20mm
then 87 x 20 = 1740mm
1.74 metres is only 68"
Thats 5 ft 8" to the top of the saw.
That real life tractor is only 4 ft tall at its highest.
is it an import from Lilliput?
