I found this handy easy to use scale converter at the Google Play store. I don't know if there is an iPhone version. (Maybe somebody can check and post response here.) It's called Scale Converter, by Scalar Pint. No popups, no ads. Simple tool. Very user friendly to convert between modeling scales and measurement units. Below is a screen shot of the app on my Android based phone. Drop down menus will allow selection of scales (1:1 through 1:20000) and length measurement (inch, mm, mile, km, etc.). No 'custom scale' available. However, the list is pretty extensive. The terms are typical inches, feet, mile, mm, meter, etc.) Type in measurement on either line to convert a length measurement. Example above: 1:1 measure of 4.75 inches converts to 0.339 inches at 1/14 scale. If you need to change measurements "on the fly", just click on the appropriate drop down to change. For example, in image below, I just clicked on mm in the drop down to get the 8.618 measurement. The icons at the bottom of the screen: double arrows - scale conversion; colon- scale calculator (input two length measurements); percent mark - percent calculator (input two ratios to get percentage factor between the scales); and decimal to fraction conversion (only works with yards, feet, and inches since metric is, well, metric). Again, input data on either line and conversion works. (If you need just a metric converter, use scale converter, put both scales at 1:1 and change length measurement term to metric on one and imperial on the other. Also, enter numbers on one line (either one) and your conversion gets reflected in other line. Hope you find this 'review' useful. Again, if someone can look to see if an iOS version exists and let us know here, I'd appreciate it.

Have looked for quite awhile to find a decent model of the USCG Eagle. I know the history of the Eagle and her sister ship Gorch Fock. I have downloaded numerous pictures and cannot really tell any differences. 1. Has anybody on this site made an Eagle out of the Gorch? 2. Would it be as simple as applying the Coast Guard insignia on the bow? Surely someone has done this.
