: I'm a newbie, thinking of making a SOF from Yost's website (thanks tom, great
: site), but am finding the measuments counterintuitive. Any suggestions for
: conversion to standard imperial (fractions)? Or should i just go with
: cm's?

Pick up a tape measure with cm if you can, otherwise divide the number by 2.54, then take the number right of the decimal point and multiple it by 16. The number left of the decimal is inches and the number you divided is 16th. For example, 50cm would become about 19 and 11/16th. (50/2.54=19.68503... and .69*16=11.04)
