Default Plan and measurments

Many would (or rather should) be comfortable but are not, in part because
a simple divide by 2.5 doesn't work exactly. Mostly the problem is
visualizing the distances/measurements. Having grown up long ago in
metric, I still find the intricacies of US measurements confounding, but
on the other hand, more easy to draw in my mind.


Does ANYONE not own _a_ ruler and tape that doesn't have metric markings?

Anyone who has NOTHING with metric units, speak up!
