ScaleMaster is a scale calculation program. You can use it to compute the scale, subject size, or model size. As long as you know two of these variables, you can calculate the missing value. Values can be entered in either Metric or Imperial (English) units, and you can choose that the output be displayed in either Metric or Imperial units. The results are rounded to 2 decimal places, which is enough precision for most rulers. The scale can be determined by knowing both the subject and the model size, and the scale can be calculated to 2 decimal places or rounded to the nearest whole number. There is also a capability for calculating a subject that is smaller than the model (such as models of insects). You can access ScaleMaster instructions at any time from the menu. They appear in a separate window. Specifications: The application consists of a single file named ScaleMaster.exe which can be stored in any directory, even on your desktop or start menu, on a PC running Windows 98 or better.
