I've decided to bite the bullet and convert from Imperial to Metric. One item I'm wondering if it's really necessary to convert is the Incra Master Lift II. Is there ever a time when it would be critical to have the Metric setup versus Imperial?
In the Imperial setup, there are 32 increments per revolution, each increment being .002 inches and 1 revolution being 1/16 inches. In the Metric setup, there are 40 increments per revolution, each increment being .05mm and 1 revolution being 2mm.
Since .05mm is roughly .002 inches, is it really necessary to upgrade the lift to Metric for $60?
