Hi All.

I am hoping that I can get some advice regarding a measuring conundrum I am facing. I have taken on a woodworking project that requires precise measuring. For example, the measurements that I need to cut is 6 & 7/64 " and 5 & 9/16 and 6 & 57/64'th.

I have standard tools including a 6" micrometer.

Can anyone give me a push in the right direction here?

convert to thousands

Convert your fractions of an inch to thousands of an inch. Then you can use your micrometer IF it is large enough. How will you cut to those dimensions accurately? Is the work round or rectangular? What is the cutting device, a saw?
