Don't be too hard on Jay, I believe my return has him all flummoxed. Besides he does know clicks, oh and at his age; cubits .

I'm no math whiz (Bob would snort iced tea out his nose at THAT understatement) but does the following not, err, follow to anybody else?

". . .1/4 to 1/2 inch thick or if dealing with metric about one milimeter."

OK - I'm an idiot - I was looking at a plastic ruler that sort-of lives next to the monitor at Lodge and didn't realize that the 1 on the ruler really meant "10"

I was in favor of the mandatory metric conversion for the U.S. but it fizzled, so I lost interest...... Same thing happened a few years ago with the Martian lander project - remember?

So I will not try for any conversion in the future except for a dram, and we'll agree to use my glass...

I do know clicks - and will gladly explain cubits to you when you finally come down to help finish the ark!!! You did say that you hold some sort of rinky-dink boat qualification?

OK - More info please!!! Does it polish up?

Yes, you can sand it, polish it, paint it, put paint in the mold so it is embedded in it....

One inch is just over 25 millimeters(25.1) so one half inch is going to be about 12mm and 1/4 would be about 6mm.
