so dose this work by using the scale

would be same as 2 inches? or 2.25 = 2 1/4 ?

or is there a different method?

Thanks again

yeah thats in Wh33ls.

One thing to remember if your going to use dynamic calc's (like fields, gravity etc) is that they only calculate in meters so you would have to do the appropiate conversions
