              0.8 x 35 = 28mm, just over an inch in old money.

                0.8 x 32 = 25.6 which is just about an old inch, good for battens, and as 1/32 is a normal imperial measurement interval the strip stock was therefore probably 1/32 thickness……all good stuff.

                  Hi all , checked size and it was .8
                  Nice to have you two agree.
                  Actually cut the width to about 1 5 mm as it looked about right.

                  Up graded the tiles, back to the old material, this thickness af just over 1.2mm is easier to cut a tile into in a length.
