XCR1250 Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 The US tried to convert to the Metric system way back in 1975 which was supposed to take about 10 years, I recall this very well how the people and manufacturers opposed it enough that it was never completely implemented, I believe we are gradually on course to have it eventually as many things are now all Metric or half and half.

I worked in Engineering, we didn't use Metric, but some equipment used for measurements used tenths & hundredths, 10 tenths equaled a foot, very similar the Metrics..

Learned how to do that back in grade school in the 1950's, it seemed very strange to me back then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anler Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 The metric system is alot easier and more widely used. But the Queen's system is what we are used to so fuck everything else! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neal Engineering doesn't use inches for some things, still other things they do, an example is when we worked with Carpenters it was only inches, same with Steel Workers, steel beams or pre-stressed concrete which are in inches. Micrometers and similar devices are also NORMALLY not in inches although I have some which read both. Edited June 6, 2019 by XCR1250 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neal You'd need to ask an Engineering College about that, I don't have the answer..I still have many measuring devices which use 10's & hundredths..including 50 and 100 foot cloth and steel tapes, notice they are 50 & 100 "feet" long.
