Hey Guys

 

I'm a newbie, just joined the forums. I just wanted to know the unit of measurement used in the PDF given below.

 

Thank You.

I would have to assume that only millimeters makes sense.

Hi,

 

The measurement is in Millimetres and uses the European convention of using a comma instead of a period for the decimal point.

 

Cheers,

Pogo

Hey thanks for the quick reply, can u please help me convert it to meters please.

 

Thank You.

1000mm to one meter.

 

You must be from the states :)

[Panthro]

eg. 899.024millimetres = 0.899024metres or

perhaps you mean centimeters = 89.9024cm (1cm = 10millimetre)

 

and good luck and have fun with your build.

thanks a ton guys!!

:) As Panthro pointed out the beauty of metric sys is you just have to move the comma/colon by the according digits.

And even the amount of digits get obvious from the name.

"MILImeter" (a thousandth meter)

 

thanks a ton guys!!

There you go!! You thank them 1000Kg, hehe

That's why all countries left the middle age measurements of spoon, cups, elbows, feet for technical units...oh wait :D ...almost all countries :music_whistling:

What i wanna know is who can cut a plywood to a 89,902 cm instead of rounding to 90 cm and be done with it. It's not a space shuttle we're building here.

[Supersheep]

I couldn't saw it down to 0,1 mm, so go for 90 of course.

If it doesn't fit quite right, sand it down a little.

 

 

Should work however, thats within tolerance.
