Part is drawn in Autocad as INCHES, import it into Partmaster Cam or CAD and it for some reason is converting the dimensions to MM and i can not find anywhere or option clicked on MM. Someone please help, Id like to make some chips today! thanks

in part master goto view -properties -page set up choice of mm/inch

however the code generated will be in units -inch/mm/elephants etc
so if your mill is calibrated for inch 1.404 will be 1.404 inch
if set up in mm 1.404 will be 1.404 mm
go make something now
