What also is not available in metric units is lumber. Living in Seattle clear vertical grain douglas fir is easy to find, So I found 5/4" X 6" decking (actual measurement is 1 inch by 5.5 inch) turns out this rips nicely into 5 20X25 mm strips (actualy 20 by 25.4mm). For the 20 X 35 mm pieces I'm planning on using 1" X 2" (actual measure 0.75 inch X 1.5 inch) these will give me pieces that are less than 1 mm too narrow (19.05 Vs 20), but just over 3mm to deep (38 Vs 35). I will ask Bernd if this is acceptable. I try not to bug him too much. So here are some pictures since that is what is really fun about a blog anyway.
Update: I did ask Bernd and within minutes he had responded that the 1X2 material is OK. See post for how I chose the 660 on Bernd's awesome support.
