A belated welcome from me too!

Agree with the above. Don't feel like your questions are stupid or useless, they are all great, and we all love helping out. You might/will get different opinions from everyone on some things, but that's the fun of it. Diversity in our goals and situations makes it super fun for all. Keep the questions coming, and you will smile at the answers, I just bet!

hi and thanks again, first daft question, in terms of lienr thickness is it measured in imperial or metric?

 

[Lisak1]

I'll say metric, even though I don't understand either on! And welcome!

Good question -- so see, it's not a daft question! I have no idea and never really thought about it. All I know is "mils," which we just learned in another thread, there are 39 mils per mm......or did I get that backwards....?

@Dave 54 can you answer this?

 

[tom213]

so mils is the same as thou
as in thousandths of a inch

thats explains the confusion in my other thread, thanks

 

[Dave 54]

What are we talking though Milligrams, Millimetre, or Millilitre

Sizing for pond liner -- however those are measured, mils [whatever that is.....] Metric vs imperial, is there a difference in the measurement?

 

[tom213]

well 45mils in metric will be about 1 3/4 inchs thick which is mental so i dont think its metric

That would be one heavy pond liner!

 

[tom213]

dont a bit of research and 'mils' are the same as 'thou' meaning that they are measured imperially
