Re: 500 hundreds of a inch
Ugh.. stupid scientific notations.

0.050 or 50 thousandths, is larger than you can think, and may affect form fit or function a bit with robots being 3 feet wide. (If it is an overall chassis cross member dimension).

But, to add to that, a standard dimensional tolerance is +/- .002 of an inch on the parts I make on CAD at work. (Small cable connectors about an inch long (or less) total.) Think: the connector at the end of the cable snake that invades your home and brings you your TV and cable modem services. About that size.
