hmm.. Can someone point me to a website that converts inch or millimeter measurements into gauge? (for steel, that is) Used to have one, but I think my favorites list ate it
I'm trying to figure what 1/32 of an inch is, gaugewise

Don't forget (or be aware if it's new to you) that if it is for SCA combat standards the Guage size specified in the rules is in Birmingham Gage!!
It doesn't make much of a difference but it will save arguments.
happy hitting,

It's always a trade off. Time or money.

Also be aware that in the States, the Steel Gauge is what sheet is produced to. It is a "light to gauge" standard. So you would want to use a gauge one size up.

Blaney,
Could you elaborate? I seem to remember something about this a while back, but I have had a few strong hits to the head since then.
