JESUS CHRIST THANK YOU..... Seriously man I have been trying to understand this forever and have always felt so stupid. I made the mistake of asking once and was humiliated at a woodworking shop. Thank you for explaining man
thank god for metric .. Now i understand why imperial is so confusing.. i have to say after watching this video i now know how to use a imperial tape measure... good job
Biggest problem i find with imperial is when im dividing measurements for a room. Fractions is easy until you need to quickly work out a third of a fraction...
I’m not totally sure but they seem to want to stick with it. It would also be very expensive as a country and for companies to switch their entire measurement system and for companies that the export too
Suppose we tell your country to switch to imperial overnight. Besides I do not know why everyone makes this so hard. As a carpenter when building I have zero problem measuring anything for me imperial is easy.

Divide the inch by 8 spaces is 8ths, divide the inch by 4 spaces and 4ths....and so on

How do you do /32 and what not if your tape doesn't have the markings?
You can't really then
Just mark in between the 16th
double 16ths simple.
Pls.... how do I measure 2 and 3/4 of an inch using measuring tape
Thanks
so after the line with the 2 it will be the 3rd of the next smaller sized lines.
Ok. I was doing good in the forest... until I wandered off and got lost.
Just kiddin'. I grew up with imperial. This metric is driving me crazy, lol.

And imperial drives metric users _extra_ crazy, so I guess it's just comeuppance.

@@Alexander-vm2ox You must know...
Metric is so much easier
Why do you people struggle with this outdated method?🙄🙄🙄

They're used to it and don't want to try switching from what they're used to, even if it would be worth it in the end.
