Nominal lumber (like 2x4 and 2x6) is not those actual measurements. It used to be “back in the day”! But now it’s smaller (either due to drying or planing or greedy-ness🤷🏻‍♀️). 2x4s are actually only 1.5” by 3.5” and 2x6s are 1.5” by 5.5”. Make sure you use the real measurement when planning your builds! And tune into my stories to see what I’m making with them today for my garage. #diytips #garageorganization | DeLancey DIY

How are your local lumber prices?! 2x4x8 treated in my area is $4.11. #wood #lumberprices #cost #woodworking #money #powertools #dropcost #tools #question #build #diy | Matthew Peech Woodworking And DIY
