Water Scales = American units to the rescue.
Yeah, "simple conversion" my ass. 1 liter = 1 kg. That is easy.
Much less useful when you want to measure out an ounce of weed, or measure in pounds for any other reason.Quote:

The largest civil engineering project in Europe gets underway; London Crossrail, at a cost of £16bn (US$25bn), which is a tunnel crossing London East to West, and links the two financial centres; The City and The Docklands.
Eight enormous Tunnel Boring Machines have been bought from German manufacturer Herrenknecht, who will buy them back after completion.
At a cost of £10m each, and weighing nearly 1,000 tonnes, they are impressive pieces of kit.
Boring is expected to progress at a rate of around 100m per week, and will have to navigate existing sewers and road and Underground tunnels.

TBMs are awesome. I've always loved 'em.
I wonder how often they have to replace the borehead.
With exception of the British currency I don't need ounces or pounds for any of those, grams do the trick quite well.Quote:

More realistic versions of Disney females behind the link; pretty cool stuff.
