Did gratings "round up". I just noticed that head ledges round up more than the deck(if I read it right) but I can't find anything that says if the gratings round up. I sure hope not

Another grating question. When you make gratings how thick do you make them? Scale would be about 1/16" which just seems too thin for such a fiddly thing.
There's been an interesting discussion on gratings: https://shipsofscale.com/sosforums/threads/gratings-correct-height.3331/
Thank you but that discussion was more about the height of the coamings than the thickness of the grates. And just to be sure, I'm asking about the thickness of the model grates not the real ones.
