What is the conversion between meters and bricks?
The Black Card:
I need this for a project I am doing.
Zalot:
This isn't really hard to figure out.
Well, if the average height of a man is 5'10, and a blockhead takes up 5 blocks, then the average height of 5 blocks is 1.5 meters.
1.5 divided by 5 is 0.3.
Therefore each brick is 0.3 of a meter. Exactly 1 meter would be 3 bricks and one plate.
Ignore this. Blockheads aren't humans. Scroll down to my lower post.

What about horizontally?
Zalot:
You can't actually achieve a perfect meter horizontally, due to the size of the studs. Just assume 3 bricks is a meter and it would be fine.

And one brick would horizontally be?
