Blacksmithing!

Post by onodric » Mon Dec 21, 2015 3:21 am

Hello all!

I'm an iron worker in Nashville. Currently using QCAD for digitizing hand-forged iron products... from France.
Unfortunately, I cannot convince my boss / coworkers to switch to metric.

Thank you for an excellent product!

I thought the US had gone metric in the end of the 90's

When we started the company in Michigan in '79, I showed my fellow designers how easy the metric system was, they dropped imperial right away and never made another project but in metric! :wink:
