I apologize in advance as this question is completely of the list topics
but I hope that somebody will have the answer.

I am currently building a six legged walker using the Handyboard as the
main CPU and using a modified Miniboard using the Servo16 program that I
have mentioned in a previous mail to control the legs.
My question actually relates to the walker construction, I am using the
assembly instructions for the Mekatronix Robobug as a base but the sizes
of the screws, nuts, bolts, etc. are using a format that I haven't seen
before in the UK. The size is in the format of a # (this is a hash
symbol in case the UK layout on my keyboard makes it look otherwise)
followed by a number. I have five different sizes, #2, #4, #6, #6-32,
and #8. If any body knows what these mean in metric or imperial sizes
could they let me know.

I apologize again for this off topic question.
Thanks in advance for any help.
