As a followup to my own inquiry, is the bracket on the "1x2 plate w/ 1x4
bracket" (http://www.peeron.com/inv/parts/2436) 1/10 of a stud thick? An easy
way to check this would be if the bracket, plus one plate, plus one tile is the
same thickness as a brick is wide. Anybody care to check this? A 1/10 stud
offset of this design would give you, by extension, 0.1, 0.5, and 0.9 stud
offsets ...
Any other ideas?

| All Right, I'm in the process of building a boatm using the now popular SNOT studs-out hull contouring approach. Given that a plate is 0.4 studs thick, one can get the following offsets pretty easily: -0.2 studs: use one of the 1x1 side-stud (...) (24 years ago, 15-Aug-02, to lugnet.build)
