I know when I used to build patterns from blueprints I had to change all the dimentions to Inches. Multiply MM by .03937 to get inches. (I still remember that) Report this Post to the Staff
spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 10/21/2018 11:33 pm I would call it a die chip. I don't know of a good way to accurately measure the surface area easily, but it appears a little small to cross that arbitrary 4mm squared threshold.
