1/14th scale ruler???

[Supermario]

Hello all.

Way back when I was young , my father helped me build a HO scale train table which had a scale version of the neighborhood I grew up in. He gave me a HO scale ruler which he made where each line was equal to a foot. I went through the whole neighborhood with a tape measure in hand and got dimensions from every house..........
That scale ruler was so cool!

Where do I go to find a way to make myself a 1/14th scale ruler????

Thanks, Mario

To get the appropriate scale that I want I measure the 1:1 unit and then divide that number by 12 getting the measurement in inches. I then divide this measurement by 14. I then match my answer against the following chart, keeping the whole number and adding the following as appropriate, by rounding to the nearest number:

Inch: Fraction, Decimal Equivalent Chart

1/32 0.03125 2/32 : 1/16 0.0625
