  Re: Lego units
 
That's a pretty straightforward calculation if you know the dimensions of a Lego piece. However, actually measuring Lego parts doesn't give very even measurements in either inches or millimeters. Note that a plate is 8 LDU thick and that a 1-stud (...) (24 years ago, 17-Jan-01, to lugnet.cad)

(...) I'm not 100% sure, but if you mean the centre to centre spacing of the studs (and hence, the approximate width of a 1x1 plate/brick) they're either 8mm or 5/16 of an inch (despite being from Canada, I'm inclined to believe 5/16" is more (...) (24 years ago, 17-Jan-01, to lugnet.cad)
