How To Make A Dollhouse That Is Scaled To Work With A Model Railroad I should have known that this would happen. After all, thanks to my daddy's hobby when I was a child, I still have a fondness for model railroads. Then there is my current hobby, building and collecting dollhouses. Inevitably, the two hobbies were bound to come together and I was going to have to figure out how to make a dollhouse that can be properly scaled to fit a model railroad. It would seem that the two worlds would be a natural fit for one another.
Dollhouses now come in just about every architectural style imaginable and model railroads have long been known for sprzedam ziemniaki paszowe podkarpackie (http://www.go.xmc.pl/ods/137168/The_Options_For_Plans_Of_free.html) their near perfect replication of life-sized railroads. But somehow, somebody forgot to get the enthusiasts from the two camps to read off the same page. The scales are radically different…but, fortunately, not impossible to remedy. Both systems have numerous scales and for Zielona Góra Anonse each scale there is a unique group of devotees.
But surely I am not the only one who ever wanted to merge the two worlds. That is what I thought, however, there just hasn't been much written on the subject. It turned into one of those "if it is to be it is up to me" situations. This article will give you an overview of what I discovered. Since the heart of the problem has to do with miniature scale… that is the most logical place to begin your research.
Where is the common ground? Also important is identifying your anchor piece. For example, you may be a dollhouse hobbyist looking to merge with a model railroad. If that is the case then it just makes more sense to build from the dollhouse you already have. Unfortunately, as you will learn, that is easier said than done. It had been a long time since I really paid close attention to model trains. My father's elaborate setup has been long gone and, at best, I remembered a scale called HO and then there were the larger trains that I only knew by the name, Lionel.
It was then that I discovered that model railroad scale is as confusing, if not more so, than dollhouse scale. Besides scale the railroaders also use a measurement referred to as gauge. It is important to know that scale and gauge are not used interchangeably and are two different kinds of measurement. Consequently, for your purposes you will want to leave gauge out of the equation and simply compare scale to scale. The most popular hobbyist dollhouse scale is 1:12.
Simply put, that is 1 inch per foot in the natural world. And indeed, there is a match in the miniature railroad realm. This scale can work, assuming you have a budget and sufficient room to accommodate a train that is nearly big enough to ride. (Actually, some people do ride them but not without difficulty.) A better choice, at least from my perspective, is a ˝ inch scale also labeled as 1:24. That is, ˝ inch per one foot in the full-sized human world.
Now we have something that we can more easily work with.
