It seems that my exact measurement of 20 feet was a little off as i'm now getting to my 12th house and it's not in the right pace.
I''m not sure if i correct it as i'm going along (make some a little bit shorter unevenly, and guestimate) or to reduce the size my a few inches
I'm just going to see how much i've gone over by at the end, and calculate how wide they should have been
*edit*
I've just realised that the house at the end is wider than the rest. damnit!
What i've decided to do is manually draw on the boxes over the house, and then take an exact measurement
I also realised that maybe i should just build a few different types of houses then copy and past as this will be quicker than building them all from scratch#
I decided to measure 7 houses and take an avreage. I used a spreadsheet to make the maths easier and workd out that it would end up being 17 feet and 1 inch approx. I couldnt work out how to change from base 10 to base 12 and then represent it as a fraction. Argh!! I worked out 1 inch to be 0.083333... so therefore its about one and a quarter of these. theres no point being too accurate because i'm basing it on a photo anyway and quite inaccurate guidelines.
I added new guidelines to the project and it seems my hard work paid off. It's almost perfect and what i'm going to start going now is building one of those houses - i may as well do mine!!
