But it's hard to know because the angle of the camera.
I was studying the LEGO brick. I think I've discovered why it's not 1:1...
I was wondering about that too much actually. The pieces are 5:6.
So, there's some math involved. Everything revolves around 1,6mm.
1,6 x 6 = 9,6mm
1,6 x 5 = 8mm
So far, so good, but the problem appears if you want to stack 3 plates.
For each 3 places you get one piece... so 3 x 3,2mm = 9,6mm.
A stud has a diameter of 4,8mm (3 times 1,6mm), the walls have the size of 1,6mm
So a small piece with 2 walls and a stud would measure 8mm.
If you want to keep everything at the same proportion, using "one unit" to fit everything, it would be hard to make it in a 1:1 cube, I think.
Maybe you'd have to use 4 plates to make a brick, instead of 3. I didn't calculate a possible resolution for that. But it's pretty interesting that LEGO has a standard unit for everything.
Everything in a LEGO piece is about multiplying by three and using a unit of 1,6mm. I mean, the most basic pieces.
I actually think that numbers first appeared at Kiddicraft piece. But I'm not sure. Can anyone confirm that?
