3D Modelling - Print Scale Model Calculator - Factor to Percentage Conversion Tools


Model Scale Converter - Useful for 3D Print STL re-scaling and Scale Ratio Calculator


Not only does Digital Taxidermy bring you a great range of 3D printable STL’s, Physical printed models and Sci-Fi short stories but we also have tools for the scale modeller and hobbyist no matter what their field. Please use this free scale ratio calculator.

This online scale calculator allows you to enter the known variables then get a scale factor and a percentage difference as a result. Use it to scale up or scale down models.

The result can then be used in your 3D modelling, slicer software or in further calculations to accurately resize almost any model for 3D printing.

The advanced calculator can be used to aid for more in-depth calculations and returns a scale measurement, the scale factor and the percentage.

Scale Conversion Calculator.

Convert an STL from one scale to another. Put in the original scale and the output scale and get a scale percentage and scale factor.
Convert 1/ scale
to 1/ scale

Scale Measurement Calculator.

Allows you to convert a known measurement to another measurement and get a scale factore and percentage change.
Convert from mm
to mm

Advanced Scale Dimentions Calculator.

Allows you to convert a known measurement from a known scale to get a measurement at a desired scale plus the scale factor and percentage change.
Convert in 1/ scale
to 1/ scale

These calculators have come from the benevolence of the web gods. If you find this tool handy and wish to lubricate his benevolence in the hope of more calculators to come then we have included a donation button below.

You really wouldn’t believe how much coffee it takes to do this stuff.

 



With these calculators you can get success in making your 3D models compatable with your gaming terrain of any scale. if you play 6mm gamaes and want to turn models at 1/50 into 1/300 or 1/250. 

Or maybe you are a railway modeller and want to convert scales from life size to 1/76 scale or convert any gaming model, say 15mm 1/100 to 1/76 OO scale.

It is perfect for hobbyists, accurate scale drawings, working out scale conversions for design work and much more.
