Don't buy hardwood at Red River Lumber, they don't calculate board feet correctly and they will short you!
I had to keep going back on my kitchen build because every time my order was short. On my last trip I bought 1 board and at the widest point was 6.5" and was 10' long 7/8" thick
They charged me for 6.5 board feet
They said that they add a 1" to the widest point and calculate it at 1" thick
(7.5x10x1)/12=6.25 that's still less than what they charged me for
In the real world it would be an average of the width times length times thickness divided by 12
(5.79x10x0.875)/12=4.22
I don't think I should be charged for wood that isn't there! read more
