Metric tools

[Odell]

Anyone know how I can use standard and metric tools in the same program without my metric tool being the size of a football field? Around here management wants to avoid using anything metric so about all we ever use is standard tooling. However I have ran across a job where I have to use a 12 mm ball mill. I know I can change MC from English to Metric, But this is the first time I had to use standard and mm in the same program.

open your metric tool into your file, click on the tool to edit, then convert the MM values to inch

 

if is says 10

 

make it 10mm

 

it will convert to the inch value, then save it into the Inch library, once for each tool used and your done.
