    This is the concept of scale factors, given that the length of the model which has been modeled by scale factor 1/64 is 0.39 inches, then the actual diameter will be:

    scale scale factor = (model diameter) / (actual diameter)

    where:

    actual diameter = (model diameter) / (scale factor)

    =0.39 / (1/64)

    =24.96 inches
