Is there a program out there that will translate metric to inch measurements?

"Mr. DeGroot proposes that this system can be used for models not to a particular scale (such as required to fit a track gage) and which requires no castings. A metric design can be built to a 20% smaller scale by making 1 mm = 1/32" . if a larger model would be better a metric design can be made to a 60% larger scale by making each mm = to 1/16 of an inch."
Very true Marv I have recently found TIs at thrift stores and rummage sales in the $.25 to $1.00 range.The second most important tool in your shop should be an inexpensive scientific calculator. Shop around and you'll be able to find one for less than $5.
