In order to find the thickness of the mylar that
Lantsov used you
sometimes need to convert microns to mils, since
many Mylar suppliers show their material in
English or inches.
Did I mention that I don't speak metric. I
hate metric. All it ever does is wastes
your time converting it to English. Ah!
Now I feel better. So here's the
conversion: |
Mylar - 3 microns =
1.18 mils
3 microns = 0.000118" or 1.18 thousands or 1.18
mils or not rounded off it's 0.118110236 mils
Carbon Fiber Rods - 1mm =
.040"
.6mm = .024'
Lantsov uses 1-mm and 0.6 mm carbon fiber rod
the above figures are rounded off. |
