Wonder if these plans cold be scaled up?
Not sure what scale this is in, but they have some cool woodworking plans for construction equipment, i was wondering if something liked this could be scaled up to build this in 1/12 or 1/14 scale?
Here is the link for what i am talking about: http://www.bearwood.com/product1382.html or this http://www.bearwood.com/product1383.html

Sure - say the plans are in 1:10 and you want 1:14.5
Take each dimension and divide by 14.5 and multiply by 10 Using a copier only works if it were drawn to a perfect scale.... |

That is a toys and Joy's plan. They are rather large, closer to 1/12 IIRCC.
I will have to look and see if I have that one. |

Just checked, I have the plan for this scraper # 88-1
The wheel dia is 3 5/8", you should be able to scale it from that. The cross tube is 6 1/4 long 1" dia. |
