And I showed that that was not a viable 'out' because a rounded figure for the circumference would be 31, not 30. It's OK to admit when you're wrong V. On this point you clearly are. It would behoove you to admit so.

I see you've done some googling. You're referring now to the 'out' where the 10 cubits is measured on the inside of the circle and the 30 cubits is measured around the outside, and the width of the brim is chosen so that the ratio works out as something much closer to pi than 3.
Yes, you can make the math check out that way, but I think it's very odd to give one dimension measured inside and the other mentioned outside.
Also, now it's you who is flip-flopping - you WERE claiming that Hiram COULDN'T make a circle that was this close to perfect. You seemed pretty sure.
