With all of the rain lately, and the additional rain forecast in the coming days, I am looking for big supply of gopher wood. How many board feet would 300 cubits by 50 cubits by 30 cubits add up to?
Anyone have some extra gopher wood?

if you can answer any of those questions, you'll be far ahead of all the biblical historians out there.

Well, a cubit is ~20.6" so ...
((300 x 20.6 / 12) x (50 x 20.6 / 12) x (30 x 20.6 / 12)) / 12 = 189709.5 bf.
If you really wanted to know :biggrin:.

Chris, i've been doing my hillbilly rain go away dance. Somehow it hasn't worked yet. It's been raining for 5 days straight and there's no end in sight. The river is flooded majorly, and alot of downtown Louisville is under water. Before long i'm gonna have to drive my boat to work

Ernie, are you doing the dance backwards? Maybe you should stop dancing, just in case...
