Ok, What ia half of 5.3 mm?
It's 2.65mm.

Jaysus! If you can't divide 5.3 by 2 in your head, you just flunked
gradeschool math.

Now that you have told me the answer, point me to a rule that will
indicate that distance.

.65 millimeters = 0.0255905512 inches, approx 1/40

You got a rule accurate to 2.5 one hundredths of an inch?
More importantly, can you use it?

Not doubting your skill, but that is getting ridiculously precise for
woodworking.





No, I wnat to se the metric rule that will indicate 2.65mm.
