Linquistic fun

Americans don't use grams too much, we are that country that uses the other method of weight.

"Cheerio!!" Said the Brit, "NOT POUNDS!!!!!!"

"How dear!!!"


Of course, the Brits weigh pounds in stones, which Americans weigh in tons.

Confused yet??? We both speak ENGLISH, you know.

My first guess was on page 6, so I will go with 121.8 grams I hope that wasn't taken somewhere too.

114 grams is my guess

Based on 316 stainless and my formula as follows.....

Pen is 150 mm x 13.5 mm (5.9" x .53"
1/2" solid 316 stainless rod weighs 302.9 grams (.668 lbs) per foot
so 5.9" equals 178.71 grams to start and I figured 35% reduction in machining which takes us to 116 grams BUT Skip says somebody was within a gram so I went to 114 cuz 113 was an early quess.
