RV-7 plans available in metric measurments ?

I, for one, would never want to have *two* types of hardware floating around (metric and English). Sooner or later, I'd be bound to put the wrong nut on the wrong bolt or something like that, thus mucking up the nut, the bolt, the parts or all of them.

Mixing units in one system is bad... ask me how I know this.

Steve,
Don't ever try to restore an English car like the one in my avatar. It is fitted with 3 different imperial "standards" plus some metric screws here and there
Imagine the nightmare for someone born in metric

We have been metric for half of my life but I went back to Imperial like a duck to water. Just relax and go with it, mate. All you need is a 6" and 12" rule .

I am born in the USA and still have trouble with fractions. At Boeing and UAL I ONLY used a decimal ruler. I was shocked to find all Van's prints in fractions. I made many errors along the way that would not have been had the dimension been in decimal.

Go to the Yard Store and search for "scale" you can find all the decimal scales you need. Then get a fraction to decimal conversion chart.
