Geez that is ridiculous. It's not like consumers had to purchase MORE... -- MP4VT2004 06/22/2017 1:59PM Even Ty Webb knows that and he isn't sure where his lumber yards are ** -- BJ Slade 06/22/2017 12:36PM Should anyone get a dime? No. Should Home Depot put up a sign? Maybe.** -- jmanatVT 06/22/2017 11:54AM Yes, dummy proof the store. A sign next to the wet vacs should read -- fordham 06/22/2017 3:32PM It's actually on Lowes' website when you go look for dimensional lumber. ** -- HokieinTampa 06/22/2017 1:08PM Failing or inability to read is not fraud -- Vienna_Hokie 06/22/2017 11:15AM And if it is, every restaurant had better brace itself for the lawsuit -- Tafkam Hokie 06/22/2017 11:41AM 14 oz "Pint" fraud is a serious crime. ** -- jmanatVT 06/22/2017 12:00PM That is a lawsuit I would get behind -- Vienna_Hokie 06/22/2017 1:54PM How many of you know that a dressed 2x4 used to be 1-5/8" by 3-5/8"? -- Hokie in CT 06/22/2017 11:14AM My parent's house has some 1-3/4 x 3-3/4 lumber in it ** -- Tafkam Hokie 06/22/2017 11:36AM The reality is the wood STARTS at 2x4 and is surfaced down to whatever size -- HokieinTampa 06/22/2017 10:59AM It isn't just that the lumber is planed down. It also shrinks in the kiln. ** -- Tafkam Hokie 06/22/2017 11:39AM Point remains... it STARTS (rough cut) at 2x4 or greater. ** -- HokieinTampa 06/22/2017 11:42AM "quarter" lumber is typically hardwood. "inch" lumber is softwood. -- 48zip 06/22/2017 11:05AM Not a national standard... I buy 6 quarter heart pine, soft maple & cypress -- HokieinTampa 06/22/2017 11:11AM Yeah, I just meant the 13/16" is standard 4/4 when finished. -- 48zip 06/22/2017 11:22AM In other news, a 1 gallon pot for planting only holds 3 quarts! I'm suing ** -- 48zip 06/22/2017 10:54AM What if #1 grade wood is really more like #2 grade ** -- bigbadbird 06/22/2017 10:24AM I volunteer to beat the three plaintiffs and all the lawyers -- WestEndHokie39 06/22/2017 10:16AM Class action = lawyers get all the money, you get a check for $1.12 ** -- HokieJamie 06/22/2017 09:44AM Raises Hand. I'm 50+, and I didn't know (or care) until about 12 years---> -- Late 80s Hokie 06/22/2017 09:29AM It's amazing how life experiences are so different. -- HokieSignGuy 06/22/2017 10:57AM It's something I only learned last year when I built a wood fence -- hokeyhokie 06/22/2017 10:26AM They measure the nominal dimension when they are rough sawn. -- vtbones 06/22/2017 09:44AM Missed your explanation when I typed mine above. Well said. ** -- HokieinTampa 06/22/2017 11:02AM So, because lumber retailers cheated people 60 years ago... -- Freddyburg Hokie 06/22/2017 09:28AM Oh sweet Jesus, there was no fraud -- Baltimore Hokie 06/22/2017 10:42AM Oh, sweet Jesus... -- Freddyburg Hokie 06/22/2017 11:14AM Whatever- you probably don't live in Fredericksburg either -- WestEndHokie39 06/22/2017 12:49PM I don't anymore... -- Freddyburg Hokie 06/22/2017 2:36PM Prolly! ** -- Baltimore Hokie 06/22/2017 11:24AM It's not a scam and nobody was cheated ** -- WestEndHokie39 06/22/2017 10:17AM The labels say 2x4, not 2"x4". Codes call for 2x4. Case dismissed. ** -- 48zip 06/22/2017 10:24AM If you buy as much lumber as I do you want to sue lowes and home depot -- fordham 06/22/2017 09:43AM Actually, it varies. Anything over 6" is 3/4" less than nominal. -- 48zip 06/22/2017 10:49AM They do at REAL lumber yards, just not the big boxes. -- 48zip 06/22/2017 10:21AM I use Lowes for prob. 95% of the stuff I buy, the good thing is -- fordham 06/22/2017 10:58AM In my area, Lowes has far better stock that HD. -- 48zip 06/22/2017 11:08AM That is what I have found. ** -- fordham 06/22/2017 11:38AM It'll get tossed ** -- FfxStationHokie 06/22/2017 09:25AM That's a law firm looking for a pay day.
