Hi from England, I have found a plan of a building i’d like to scratch build but its to N scale, what percentage would I have to use to get up to HO scale[:)]
HO is 1.84 times the size of N scale. (Not quite twice.)

Cuddlyjools,
Wayne’s answer is correct, you’ll need to enlarge by 184%. But, for future use, you and others may want to get a copy of the chart that appeared in MR’s Workshop, by Keith Thompson. It appeared on page 24 of the September 1994 issue of Model Railroader. It gives conversion percentages between scales from Z to O.

There are a lot of programs on the web to do scale conversions. Some are for use on-line and others for download. This link is to the download for the free program I have been using.
