MM to Inches

[BobSch]

I've tried downloading the program you suggest, Bob, but it's not playing along. Wouldn't you still get decimal places of inches, though, which defeats most tape measures?

Ray

Yes, unfortunately the program works in decimal.

I'm the same way Hank. Kinda feel bilingual

Wouldn't that be biLINEAR?

Ray,
I had a problem as well, but I downloaded the zip file in lieu of the exe and it worked.

Thanks for the tip Bob.

Here's a chart I made up that I use all the time for drill bits...

Get yourself a metric tape! There are bound to be some "rounding-up" and/or "rounding down" moments which could affect the overall result. I've been metric since 1971 and I would never go back, even if I had the choice.

Really? and ah how many stone do you weigh?

How much is this stone measurement anyway. I'm curious.

Some countries just cannot give up the old ways.

Over on the U.S. side of the pond we just seem to be a little
more stubborn.

With the length measurements I'm pretty much multilingual. With
weights and volumes not so much.

I weigh 85 kilograms.

For info, a stone is fourteen pounds.

For those without a converter program that's roughly 13 stone.

Here is an online conversion site that does the most common
