Re: Model A shops
Time to get rid of Metric! Time to go back to inches, feet and yards. It's too hard to covert as I get older. I use the 1 mm =.040 (1"= 25 mm) quick conversion too. And here's another, 1 Yd =11/10 = 1 meter. 1 yd 36", 10% 3.6" ! meter = 39.36" 3.6" or 10% of an yard larger. Hence 1 meter is 11/10 of a yard Long. It ain't perfect and I wouldn't use it for anything longer than two meters. But for quick estimates it works. Don't get me started on liquid measure! I fought that fight with Ivermectin a few months ago. Unfortunately, Bectin Dickinson refuses to make Hypos with anything but CCs on it. Give me ozs anytime .
