What is a US Survey Foot?

The US survey foot (1200/3937 meters ≈ 0.3048006 m) was the standard American measurement until 2023. Slightly longer than the international foot (0.3048 m), it originated from the 1893 Mendenhall Order and was crucial for the Public Land Survey System that mapped the American West.

What is a Mil/Thou?

A mil (or thou) is 0.001 inch (25.4 μm), crucial in precision engineering. The term 'thou' is preferred in machining to avoid confusion with millimeter. Human hair measures 3-5 thou, while printer paper is about 10 thou thick.
