Please accept this as constructive.
While your site is responsive and displays correctly on my phone, the mobile font is too small and the color not contrasty enough with the white background.
I couldn't read it. I do promise to read it on my desktop.

Very good tut Don and thanks for taking the time to do it!
I get confused with copper gauges.I see it listed in ounces,,,,4oz,24oz,96oz,etc,etc,etc.
I also see it listed in gauges,,,,,36,,,20,,,etc,etc,etc.
Is there a complete chart with all the different gauges and ounces on it?
Thanks again for the tut.

Thanks again for the tut. connrock I'm not sure about converting gauge to ounces. Gauge as I understand it is used to measure the thickness of the metal, where as ounce is a weight measurement. Here's a chart that shows the conversions between gauge, mm and inches. www.dlcgems.com/gauge-size-chart.htmlThanks for the compliments! |

Don since we have a pure material - copper - we can indeed have a weight per square foot and display it by gauge.
20 gauge is = to X ounces per square foot.
18 gauge is= to x+ ounces per square foot
and so on.

Thanks Scott, that makes sense. Knowing the unit weight of the material would be useful if I needed to know how much a sheet weighted, or was buying sheet by weight from a service center. |
