Artesania Latina Question Mast Dimensions - retitled by moderator

Recommended Posts

Can somebody break this down and tell me what it says, because the idea of a 0 thickness makes no sense to me:

It's supposed to go thickness x length x width

 

From the Parts List:

The mast      0  5x240

 

Now, it's not 0,5 (like .5mm) ((the other parts would say 1,5 for 1.5mm)).  So how can the mast have a 0 thickness?

The 0 probably isn't a zero.  Is there a line through it?  If so than it reads as: diameter 5 X length 240

That's the way I would read it.  I've run into this pretty often on the European kits.   Also, watch out for something like 1,5 mm which to Americans and some other places is:  1.5 mm.  There's a comma instead of a decimal point.
