While that's true, I still think the metric system is better. More precise, easier to use, base 10. Can't go wrong.A u-tube video of two idiots that can't remember a measurement for 20 seconds is not evidence that one measurement system is better than another. It is only evidence that 2 idiots that can't remember a measurement for 20 seconds can still get rich in America.
Just checking, you meant this as a joke, right? A "hair" is a figure of speech, meaning the thickness of a hair (realistically about 0.001 inches, or 25.4μm).I'm still trying to find out what a 'Hair' represents, and what is it in metric?
Max.
Tut..tut, you didn't pay attention to the reference in the video!Just checking, you meant this as a joke, right?
I find it much easier in metric, especially drills and taps., I use Imperial Units, but I use decimals for the inches.
This "more precise", is a fallacy. As long as the correct measurement is used they are the same. 8mm is no more precise than .31496 inches.While that's true, I still think the metric system is better. More precise, easier to use, base 10. Can't go wrong.
True, what I meant is that you can measure one millimeter more easily than .0393701 inchesThis "more precise", is a fallacy. As long as the correct measurement is used they are the same. 8mm is no more precise than .31496 inches.
So you disagree that it's easier to measure 8mm than .31496 inches? I don't know about you, but I've never been able to measure less than 1/100th of an inchBoth systems are of equal accuracy, it your personal bias showing.
