DIY Bogota Measurements

Postby aczera » 13 Apr 2013 17:46

hi all,

First of all thanks to the uploader who shared his bogota's image with a ruler attached, I simply measured and converted the values to centimetres.

It is interesting to note that SO's pagoda set sports the same value (to be exact the peaks are 0.05 millimetres off), but as the SO pagoda is not so rounded that might be the cause for that.

Here is the pagoda set from Southord:

Kudos to the user (can't remember the name as I downloaded lots of images and lost track) who oploaded Raimundo's bogota set next to a ruler.
Hope this helps any DIYer who tries to make them, instructions are available elsewhere on this site.

Reason: [IMG] tags fixed, as well as links to .jpg's in Photobucket URL's, thanks to all other members who helped in the replies.

To answer your question...

(img)www.whateversite.com/yourpicture.jpg(/img)

Use brackets [ ] instead of ( ) . I just used ( ) so you would see what I typed. You need to close the img with [/img]
