@sheetmetalsamurai: How to Convert MM and Inches in Seconds Most people think millimeters are more accurate than inches, but accuracy depends on how many decimal places or fractions you use. In this video I show how to convert millimeters to inches and inches to millimeters, and explain why both measurement systems can be as precise—or as rough—as you need them to be. #sheetmetal #metalfabrication #fabrication #tradesman #math
The millimeter is much better and easier than the English system. The world is starting to abandon the English system because it's complicated.

Imperial is better because you can take thirds easier than metric.

Definitely prefer millimetres but we're only as accurate as our pencil thicknesses

They’re only as accurate as the width of your pencil lead!

I've been a welder fabricator for 30 years, the first 20 in the states, but i live in Scotland now, where we use metric, and its far easier. what's quicker to do in your head, 2 7/16-11/32, or 58-12

Having learnt my toolmaking trade in imperial then converting over to metric a few years later, it was a bit of a mission as lathes, mills, grinders, etc were all calibrated in inches. But after several years of using metric and machines using metric dials, it was a breeze using metric

milimeter is world, but i dont ditch inch, inch is more simple in some way. like hollow or pipe diameter, with inch is makes more sense than milimeter. it become more complicated in milimeter. so both have advantage and disadvantage👍
