Default Handy Converter

Very often on this site there are references in inches or gallons or litres etc.
Whenever I see a reference to a size or weight that I am unsure of in either Imperial or metric I use this majic conversion tool. Very easy to use and real handy.
I hope others find it handy to.

    There are a bunch of web-based unit conversion sites on the 'net. When I'm posting on a site with an international membership, such as this one, I usually convert U.S. English measurements to metric, placed in parenthesis, for the convenience of European readers. But, in all honesty, doing another conversion to Imperial (gallons, for example), as well, is a bit >< further than I'm willing to go . Sorry.

    Hi Jim, I only put this on to help those who may find it hard or confusing converting things for themselves, and dont have a converter (this one seems to have just about everything).
    We use this at work at lot (Offshore Oil rigs) and I thought it would help out our members here.
    Just trying to help.
