#declare INCHES2METERS = 0.0254;
#declare FEET2INCHES = 12;
#declare FEET2METERS = FEET2INCHES * INCHES2METERS;
#declare METERS2INCHES = 1/INCHES2METERS;
#declare INCHES2FEET = 1/FEET2INCHES;
#declare METERS2FEET = 1/FEET2METERS;
#declare INCHES2METRES = INCHES2METERS;
#declare FEET2METRES = FEET2METERS;
#declare METRES2INCHES = METERS2INCHES;
#declare METRES2FEET = METERS2FEET;
