Blueskies, you and I are in the same world. When something finished product
is only six inches long with 4 bends and four corner notches, if you can't
hold ten mils your product looks like it was built with Bondo.

As for Mr. CHristly's measurements (and I'm glad he likes the little box; we
sure sell a hell of a lot of them) when he doesn't have the original
dimensioned print in front of him, and is making measurements with
envelopes, how he can say a measurement is off by so many mils without
knowing what it is SUPPOSED to be is beyond me.

If he is referring to the corner gap, I just went out and looked at a sample
of 10 from the last batch of 100. THe corners are water-tight to the point
where I can't see sky through them. How he has a 30 mil gap in his is
somewhat of a mystery.

Jim

Where I work , unless otherwise stated, we tolerance to:
Fractions ±1/64
0.0 ± 0.010 (10 mils)
0.00 ± 0.005 (5 mils)
0.000 ± 0.001 (1 mil)
We do make assemblies where we hold clearances of 50 micro-inches (µin)
(Oh no, not another one!)
