If you are at a computer when you need it then I have found that this site is really good. You can add the number of boards you want and you can also add the cost per board foot as well.

This site really is helpful when you are trying to work out a bid for a customer or if you are trying to work out how much your project is going to cost you.

Good Luck

use excel much?, cell a1=length b1=width c1=thickness (all in inches) in any other cell use =sum(a1xb1xc1/144)

save the excel and use it anytime you need a quick bf, anytime you enter a new value in the three cells, you get a new total
