If anyone in the UK or Europe wants a copy, I'm doing distribution over this side of the pond...it makes shipping quite lot cheaper (for the UK  the book+postage  is 30% cheaper than buying and shipping from the USA).  First consignment due in a few weeks and I'm taking orders.

It's a measurement not found on most rulers. I'd just scale up a bit to 3/16 and call it good. As a matter of fact, my most commonly used bridge is a 3/16 roll pin.
