I'm pretty sure (though not 100% positive) that a size 8 bead is a

Bzzzzt. Sorry 'bout that.
Should have been 1/8 of an inch, *not* 1.8.
Sigh... Metric measurements, which use decimal points, are sooo much
easier than fractions... But the rest is correct :)
That is, 8 beads, strung together, will measure 1" (2.5cm). So each
bead is slightly larger than 3mm.
