Chuck,
 
we wre metricised in '72...
 
one inch = 25.4 mm approx.
 
We get imperial and metric stuff here..
 
Beads come in the following sizes here
 
2.5mm
3mm
4mm
4.5mm (there are sometimes some in between...s)

 
 
3/32 (2.5mm)
1/8 (3mm approx)
5/32 (4mm approx)
 
generally I use 3 and 4mm beads  (1/8, 5/32s)
 
Bead head nymphs I tie #14s with 3mm beads,
#12s with 3 or 4mm beads
#10s with 4mm beads..
 
Hope this is not too confusing,.
