In this course we're going to look at something a little different, creating technically accurate 3D printed parts.

working units feature or bug?
How do I make inches the default working unit?
I have set my grid up to 12 units, 1 unit per main grid (1 inch) and 4 subgrids (1/4 inch). This works well for me in most cases.
The grid setup is remembered as are all my other changes to the preferences. It is just settings that constantly gets changed back to centimeters.

Strange that maya doesn't save unit preferences. You could go in and change it manually in the userPrefs.mel file. It's located in My Documents\maya\*.*\prefs\
Search for -sv "workingUnitLinear" and change to correct working units, which would be "in" in your case.
Don't know if that helps.
