Used a couple of US recipes recently and most of the ingredients are in cups, or spoons, not by weight. This is a nightmare to convert. Do Americans not own scales or something? What’s the reason for measuring everything by volume?

    I mean, you can make the exact same argument the other way round.

    My bed is made with boards of 27mm thickness. One third of that would be 9mm. Easy.

    Also if you need precision, calipers go down to 50um (micrometer), 1/20th of a mm.
