Pulling my thoughts together to start building a cabinet and wondered what size of T-moulding (imperial) went best with the UK's metric MDF (18mm. 15mm or 12mm). Steve |

Steve --- End quote --- 18mm = 3/4" 15mm = 5/8" 12mm = 1/2" I don't work in metric.... it's crap!! Just for your further information Metric is not the UK's... It's some rubish system created by the French. That they attempted to force us to use. My answer to that! go stick it in the same place as your "horse meat" and "snails".

(3/4) inch = 1.90500 centimeters I find it rather annoying to work with inches to be honest.. it's just what you are used to. |

Fozzy, Metric is the word's standard. Get used to it. Imperial is crap ! None of my tools fit on those idiotic imperial sized bolts !!!! :angry: :banghead: Arcadefever was nice enough to send me a tape measure in inches and feet, just because I went nuts of having my Mac recalculate all those values again and again. So yes I also work with Inches. What the ---fudgesicle--- do I care ? As long as I get my stuff in the correct size. I agree with Loki, it's just what you're used to . So Fozzy, are you used to liters when getting gas instead of Gallons and degrees celcius instead of Farenheit.... ? :D You get used to it, it just takes some time...just like we had to get used to the Euro (although I have to admit.....) Sorry for hi-jacking this thread.....Fozzy's indications are correct (at least, close enought for every day's practice). |

Even further, I think it'd be keen to only use the Kelvin system for temperature. |
