SI is a beautifully constructed system that no American cares about or wants to use. SI units are too easy. We prefer our obtuse system of arcane measurements thank you very much.

And Celsius is a terrific scale for science but a horrible scale for humans. 0 is cold and 30 is hot!? GTFO with that crap.
Except 0c isn’t cold, it’s just the mark at which water turns to ice.

Morning/Evening All. -15c headed to -4 in the sunshine. Need to get in to the garage and start cleaning and getting everything up off the floor. Pretty sure it gets good and wet during the melt.
the part that gets me is that -40c and -40f are the same absolute temperature. so zero=32, 100=212 and -40=-40. wierd.

Weirds me out too. As much as I appreciate metric for its base 10 structure, I still find myself thinking/ working in both.
From cabinetmaking i know 32mm =1 3/8" and a 5mm shelf pin fits nicely in a 3/16" hole. But I can't visualize metric measurements
2,536 mm = who da fuk knows unless i have a construction master calculator with me.

Morning guys.

If you really want to throw a loop into it, you guys should do some alignments. It's all measured in degrees and minutes...
I can change the settings to use imperial or metric, but I prefer using the angles in that instance.
My alignment is done in minute of tape measure. Works okish...+GFY

Sure pretend like we don’t know exactly why you know what size hole 5mm fits into😉
