Default Where to find Metric Ruler?


Hi all,

I am planning to build a small Dudly Dix design, a sailing dinghy called
an Argie 10, for my 12 year old daughter. This was a "carrot" in an
effort to get her more interested in studying. She achieved the
benchmarks, and now I have to produce

The plans are all in metric dimensions. While all dimensions are also
listed in inches, I have a feeling laying out a curve based on 473,441
and 392 centimeters is going to be easier than translating 18.62",
17.36" and 15.63" to fractions and then plotting that.

So, my question is, where to I find a tape measure that is marked in
metric units?

Also, if anyone has built one of these and has any pointers, I would
appreciate it.

Thanks,

Jonathan
