Dear convert-me.com forum visitors,

Our forum has been available for many years. In September 2014 we decided to switch it to read-only mode. Month after month we saw less posts with questions and answers from real people and more spam posts. We were spending more and more resources cleaning the spam until there were less them 1 legitimate message per 100 spam posts. Then we decided it's time to stop.

All the posts in the forum will be available and searchable. We understand there are a lot of useful information and we aren't going to remove anything. As for the new questions, you can always ask them on convert-me.com FaceBook page

Thank you for being with us and sorry for any inconveniences this could caused.

compare 30g of paper to 30g of something in the house

canada post delivers 30g letter for one stamp. How do I identify 30 grams weight of paper?

It's hard to compare by hand because you automatically consider density as well as weight. US nickels ( 5 cent pieces) weigh 5 g so six of them is 30 g.

I've weighed paper on a scale. US rates are ounce based (28.3 g), But 4 and 1/2 sheets of 20 lb paper plus a #10 envelope skate in just under 1 oz.
