im in a class called "key principles of manufacturing" and the second half of the semester is on quality audit, so we are learning this stuff. i find it actually a bit difficult to read and convert into a decimal but i can do it. just slow :o: for now at least. i get catch up reading the thimble scale. i guess the more i study it and mess around ill convert the numbers faster.

so you'd rather have a metric one? because the professor had one of those today and put it aside said we weren't messing with those.
