To measure, lay a 12 foot 2x8 so that the eight inch dimension, which is significantly less than eight inches lies face up, a cut off 4x6 under its head and foot. Using your tape measure and a pencil make a mark two inches in from one eight inch edge, then measure nine inches down from the other eight inch edge and, using a straight edge like a level for example, pencil a dark line from mark A to mark B. Your husband, who is wearing the goggles and ear protection, will cut along the line with a radial arm saw while you walk down to the other end to perform the same actions. Repeat thirteen times.
