board foot cost calculator

[edstreet]

This is a board foot calculator I made, it's in excel and published to a web page. I am going to port it to something else so our friends that's NOT using pc's can also view and use this.

This one is the .xls file itself

Basically you enter L x W x D and the cost, it returns the price per board foot. you can also enter the cubic inch if you happen to know that.

Thanks for the handy calculator. I added another step. Taking your board ft calculation, I added a cell to enter the price per board foot and let it calculate the total cost. Should be useful for ordering wood from a supplier.

OH I totally forgot about that part, that's a good idea.
