AWC Update #15 - Mastering Math for Magical Measurements

Planning on printing any Jewels of the Master Wizards?
Well then
, it’s time to dust off your chalk board for a bit of magical math!

The Rings

All the rings are currently set to a circumference of 66mm.

To adjust the size to fit you will need to measure the circumference of your finger and apply it to the following equation to see if you need to increase or decrease the proportions:

% = (Your Finger Circumference*100) / (66)

This will give you a percentage in relation to the 66mm default ring.

Here are two examples:
If my finger has a circumference of 80mm then the equation would be (80*100) / (66) = 121.2%. This shows that my finger would be 21.2% (or 21% rounding off) bigger than the default settings, so I would need to increase the ring by 21% to fit me.

If my partner’s finger has a circumference of 55mm then the equation would be (55*100) / (66) = 83%. This show that my partner’s finger is 17% smaller than the default and the ring would have to be decreased in size accordingly.

The Tiara and Crown

The Tiara and Crown are currently set to a circumference of 580mm.

The same principle and equation relate to the Tiara and Crown.

To adjust the size to fit you will need to measure the circumference of your head, where you want the crown or tiara to fit. It can be handy to use a piece of paper taped together to form a template and take the measurement from that when it is sitting comfortably.

Again, apply the measurement to the following equation to see if you need to increase or decrease the proportions:

% = (Your Head Circumference*100) / (580)

This will give you a percentage in relation to the 580mm default Tiara.

Here is a pair of examples:
If my head has a circumference of 620mm then the equation would be (620*100) / (580) = 106%. This shows that my head would be 6% bigger than the default settings, so I would need to increase the Crown by 6% to fit me.

If my partner’s head has a circumference of 450mm then the equation would be (450*100) / (580) = 77%. This show that my partner’s head is 23% smaller than the default and the Tiara would have to be decreased in size accordingly.
