I found a conversion table with formulas. Rather than edit the last post, I'll do another reply.

if you go to the link the first formula is for length conversions. The table shows 1 yard = 0.9144 meter. There are drop down menus for the "yard" and "meter" boxes. Using the drop down menu change yard to inch and meter to millimeter. Erase the 25.4 on the right side of the equation and input 0.8. Left click on the box with the 1 on the inch side and it will give you the inch equivalent.
Here is another chart giving dimensions in thousandts of an inch for fractional and wire size drill bits
