About Cubic Millimeters
A cubic millimeter (mm³) is the volume of a cube with sides of one millimeter - equal to one millionth of a liter (0.001 mL). Despite its tiny size, the cubic millimeter is an essential unit in engineering and science. In medicine, red blood cell counts are reported per cubic millimeter of blood (a healthy adult has roughly 5 million red blood cells per mm³). In 3D printing and CNC machining, material volumes and tolerances are routinely specified in mm³. A single raindrop is roughly 50 mm³, and a grain of table salt approximately 0.1 mm³.
About Tuns
A tun = 4 hogsheads = 252 US gallons ≈ 953.9 L - the largest traditional wine cask and origin of the English word 'ton': a full tun of wine weighed ~1 long ton. English shipping law rated cargo capacity in 'tuns burden'. Scottish distilleries use 'tun rooms' for large vatting/blending vats. 1 tun = 252 US gal = 2 pipes = 4 hogsheads ≈ 953.9 L.
