Welcome from Lillooet BC, just around the bend a-ways.... I don't know if we can convert you from a 1/16" to a thou, but, we can certainly help you spend a thou or two......

It is a joke about moving from carpentry to machining.

........ Well, try not to beat yourself up too badly for waiting so long before converting to the right side, you have the rest of your life to make up for it.....

In my case, no problem getting to a thou in metal. But every time I cut a 2x4 it’s 1/4” short. I believe I have sprucelexia.

You are not alone. Based on that first post, I actually put @kylem on my spam watch list.

No worries though Kylem, a good joke like that is better than a get out of jail free pass around here!

Sorry about that!

A big welcome to our group from an old rock farmer south of Chatham Ontario!

I have a helluva time getting wood welding rod to work, my thumb keeps getting in the way.
We can be a bit slow around here, unless it's helping you spend your money.

Well come from south of Calgary, don't worry about 1/16 or a thou, just keep it on proper side of the line and try again.

I have a bucket of wood filler and a welder so I should be good either way.

A couple buddies and I drove out to Vernon BC about 40 years ago. Beautiful town with thick forests and lots of mountain lakes nearby.
Lots of experience and expertise in this group.
Welcome
