Title: Help

I am getting 2 different figures when I convert mm to inch standard. Would 15mm equal .380 or 3/8. Better yet what does 15mm equal in inch scale. Thanks (Not enough coffee this morning)

1" = 25.4mm so 15 mm is about 0.59055"

Wayne,
      I use a conversion table to make it easier on me.  Here is one at this site.

you know guys, we didn't switch to the metric system so it would be harder for the reds to read our maps. the Cold war is over. I think its high time we swollowed our pride, and made the switch. then maybe someday, i'll only have half as many wrenches to dig through.

I've lived in the US for  for 47 years,  but  have never forgotten where I came from!  I am constantly amazed at all the Canadian Comedians  who  have been roaring successes here.  ;D
