Somewhere there is a recent thread on the horror stories of getting wood cut at HD and Lowes.

It is a quarter a cut here. So figure that.

I won't have them cut my wood ever again because they ALWAYS mess it up. Its not that they measure or cut at the wrong measurement (like I wanted 32" and they made it 31"), BUT they cut it at a weird angle so when you want a piece to stand straight up, it falls over. Its not nice having a skewed box. :-(

go to either one, but be an azzhole and like tell em before they cut it that youre going to measure it and make sure its perfect once they do it. I hate when people come into the store i work at like azzholes, but ya might as well...

Reckless.... Size is relative to the type of wood.

I, for instance, have a Redwood, and you, have the Weeping White Pine. Rob, of course, has a Dwarf Cedar.


Maybe next time fellas...
