Wood measurements
I bought some 3/4" plywood fir for a shelf in my cabinet. I was looking
for something to high the end bands. The store had lost of pine that looked abuot right but it was 1/2". So I kept going in circles between isles trying to find the 3/4" pine to put on the end of this plywood. After about an hour I decided to just grap the piece that looked right. Turns out the 1/2" solid wood is the same thickness as the 3/4" plywood. This wouldn't be the first odd measurement I have found like 3/4 is really 5/8... What am I missing here? -- Thank you, "Then said I, Wisdom [is] better than strength: nevertheless the poor man's wisdom [is] despised, and his words are not heard." Ecclesiastes 9:16 |
