Mmm…
NHS?
Yup
That would explain it. Difficult to get decent (or any) NHS dentistry now. I’ve been going to the same practice for over 30 years, and they went fully private about 20 years ago. Might have to have another look around.
There are a few here, I’ve been using the same one for 15 years, they are excellent.

Are you building a replacement for the CNC machines post brexit?

Christ yeah, they’re going to have to be calibrated in inches from November 
They generally already are. Everything is in thousandths of an inch in machine shops.
I don’t think anyone in our lab’s machine shops had used anything other than the metric system for many, many years even when I joined in 1989. The CNC machines, of course, had a button which allowed you to flip between metric and imperial. When I was in the US in 1988/9 I did see quite a lot of imperial machining, and imperial fasteners were the norm. But pro machinists could work easily in either system.
