Arvid,
Some of my thoughts, I live in a metric country so I buy metric in my case I bought a 10mm thread set. The T nuts I made, I think the ones that came with the set were too small. My mill is a RF30
So if I lived in an 'inch' country I would buy an inch set - just makes life easier sometimes
The worst thing for the T slots is to have poorly fitted T nuts and using too much force to tighten them - results in damage and sometimes breaking part of the T slots.
That's my bit
