Certainly not drills or bolts or any other= materials we acquire here in the US. For Regulation of Foreign= made pianos, yes, but that's about it IMO! Granted, if= everything was metric, I wouldn't have a problem with it. BUT IT= AIN'T! I still get pissed when someone tries to force a concept= on me. For you younger, more flexible of mind types, go for it.= I could care less. But for me, mechanical measurements make more= sense in 10ths, 100ths, etc. AND, by the way, when trying to do= extreme machining to +/- .0001" I'd prefer that to whatever the= decimal equivelant is.
