About Chinese Inch
The Chinese inch, known as 'cun' in Chinese, is a traditional unit of length equal to 1/10 of a Chinese foot (chi). This ancient measurement system dates back thousands of years and is still used in traditional Chinese medicine for acupuncture point locations and herbal medicine dosing. The cun is also used in traditional crafts and construction in China and other East Asian countries.
About Shaftment
A shaftment, when used as a unit of length, is usually six inches or two palms, i.e. 15.24 cm (for the international inch). It is thought to be the distance from the tip of the outstretched thumb to the other side of the palm.In English this unit has mostly fallen out of use, as do others based on the human arm: digit (1/8 shaftment), finger (7/48 shaftment), palm (½ shaftment) hand (2/3 shaftment), span (1½ shaftments), cubit (3 shaftments) and ell (7½ shaftments).
