Re: English or Metric?

My team has been using the English-ish system. Its not to unusual to find Metric bolts on our older robots. We commonly use what every fasteners are laying around our lab which is why random things will be metric while other parts of the robot are English. On a past two robots we have tried to use the English system with no more than two or three different sized bolts to keep things simple when we have to fix stuff in a hurry(which is realy much too often).
