Does anybody know how to figure out how big 10 feet would be in 1/350 scale? I'm ashamed to admit that I'm not 100% sure how this works. Does 1/350 mean 1 inch equals 350 inches? That would mean 10 feet equals about 1/3 inch. Is that right?

10 feet X 12 Inches = 120 inches.
120 inches times 1/350= .3944 inches.
so yes a little more than a third of an inch.
