3 mm scale, also known as 3 mm finescale, is a model railway scale of 3 mm : 1 ft (305 mm) used for British prototypes. Introduced as British TT gauge , it sits approximately halfway between British N gauge and OO gauge but is not as popular as either and there is no longer any mass manufacturer ready-to-run support.
The millimetre (SI symbol: mm) is a unit of length in the metric system equal to 10 −3 metres ( 1 / 1 000 m = 0.001 m). To help compare different orders of magnitude, this section lists lengths between 10 −3 m and 10 −2 m (1 mm and 1 cm). 1.0 mm – 1/1,000 of a meter; 1.0 mm – 0.03937 inches or 5/127 (exactly)
T scale, using 3 mm gauge track to represent standard gauge railways. 1:450: 0.677 mm: Model railways (T) T scale, using 3 mm gauge track to represent 3 ft 6 in (1,067 mm) gauge railways. Hasegawa also produces plastic ship models in this scale. 1:432: 0.706 mm The scale used during World War II by the U.S. Navy for aircraft recognition. 1:426: ...
The main reason for the domestic scales different from international standards is the smaller prototype loading gauge and unusual gauges of Japanese railways: 600 mm (1 ft 11 + 5 ⁄ 8 in), 762 mm (2 ft 6 in) and 1,067 mm (3 ft 6 in) are used, along with standard gauge of 1,435 mm (4 ft 8 + 1 ⁄ 2 in).
Examples include a 3-dimensional scale model of a building or the scale drawings of the elevations or plans of a building. [1] In such cases the scale is dimensionless and exact throughout the model or drawing. The scale can be expressed in four ways: in words (a lexical scale), as a ratio, as a fraction and as a graphical (bar) scale.
The base unit in the International System of Units (SI) is the meter, defined as "the length of the path travelled by light in vacuum during a time interval of 1 ⁄ 299792458 seconds."
From January 2008 to December 2012, if you bought shares in companies when Charlotte Guyman joined the board, and sold them when she left, you would have a -5.6 percent return on your investment, compared to a -2.8 percent return from the S&P 500.
Heroic scale of 32 mm miniatures. 1:50 scale is a popular size for diecast models from European manufacturers. 1:48 is commonly known as quarter scale or American O scale. 40 mm: ≈7 mm: ≈1:45 – 1:43: Older figures from the 60s and tend to be thinner / shorter than new metal ones. Close to O scale model railroads. 54 mm: 9.6 mm: 1:35 –1:32
