Drill bit sizes: Difference between revisions

For anyone looking to create such a poster or to tailor the design and colors to their own preferences, it is useful to realize that [[spreadsheet]] software makes this fast and easy to do. The tools that the software provides—formulas, cell formatting with rounding, autofill, and sorting by numerical order—obviate any manual calculation and data entry. For example, one can create the inch nominal rows for the chart—with columns for inch fraction, inch decimal, and corresponding millimeter decimal conversion—using formulas, cell formatting with rounding, and autofill; and one can then create the metric nominal rows below that, with the inch decimal conversions being automatically provided by the formulas and formatting already establishedformula; and then one can sort the whole sheet by size order, automatically interposing the inch nominal and metric nominal rows by size order. Font and color can be chosen to make a poster-size chart that is easy to read from 1 or 2 meters away. Printing can be done on a desktop printer, with the letter-size sheets then being stapled together to make up the larger poster.
