Little pickles. Right, no problem.

(Grumble grumble grumble....I was going to throw armour patterns...now he wants pickles...grumble grumble...I had better work out some patterns for making armoured pickles grumble grumble.....)

hy, I'm a new here to.
And I'm a bit confused because I am used to metric simbols. I know that 1 inch is cca. 25 mm, but i just can't figure it out what means 16 ga, 18 ga or 20 ga steel. I assume it has something to do with thickness of the steel plate.
Could anybody be so kind and explane it to me? Please!

This is a "ROUGH" guide that you can memorise.

16ga is 1.6mm
and then it goes form there...

18ga is 1.4mm

14ga is 1.8mm

So you just start 16=16 and then go form there...
This is only accurate for the majority of steel thicknesses we use and is an approximation.

in most countries you cannot get 1.8mm steel and so 2mm is sold as 14ga.

That should get you started....
There are exact charts available at many engineering tool sites like Roper Whitney and Suttons.

I just tend to use the rough guide in my head unless I am doing something that calls for super high precission. I know that when i am armouring I kick the metal thickness around by working it anyway.
