For our international clients, used to the Metric System, the following conversion may make our measurements easier to understand:
inch to mm multiply by 25.4 ----inch to cm multiply by 2.54 -----foot to meter multiply by 0.3048
(Et pour nos clients francophones, nous sommes capables de repondre dans votre langue, meme si les accents n'existent pas sur les claviers americains.)A brief visual visit to The Gallery.
