Hello, the List

    	"the measurements were in B&S. Please [can anyone] help me to find
    out what would be equivalent for wire gauge 0.32mm (0.0125") diameter
    in B&S 'cause even the customer helpdesk was confused about this." --
    Joseph Tanti 


    	0.3     mm = 0.0126 inch = B&S 28 	
     0.361  mm = 0.0142 inch = B&S 27
 	
    Also, 1 mm = 0.03937 inch, so 0.32mm = 0.0125984 inch which is a
    whole lot closer to 0.0126 than it is to 0.0125. And 0.0126 inch, as
    noted above, is rounded out to 0.3mm and equals a B&S 28. (0.0113
    inch = B&S 29)
