Making a nice but not fancy small round dining table. Time to cut the
legs. Says Norm, "We want the legs to be 28 3/4 inches." What? It
would betray his carpenterial integrity to round it off to 29"?
Someone is going to sit down at it someday and embarass him by
observing that the table seems to be about 1/4" high?

Sheesh!

Talk about pita and "Sheesh!"!

What the heck difference is it measuring 28-3/4 vs 29? A measurement is
a measurement, whatever it is...and, if the desired height of the table
is 29-1/2, which is pretty typical, then if the top is 3/4, then figure
out how long the legs need to be...

Sheesh!!!
