All carpenters screw up.
The good ones know how to fix their screw ups so that they never looked like screw ups at all.
Nothin to it. Get a board stretcher and make it right!
well its not going to get any longer when you cut it lol
No shit sherlock. Cutting it is just going to make it shorter. Duh.
Are you using metric or English measurement units?
Don’t feel confined to one or the other. If switching units will help make the wood the right size, then by all means.
Don’t forget when cutting something that you have to take into account the width of the blade that you are cutting it with as well. If you are using a particularly thick saw blade, it may make a difference in your overall measurements.
Measure twice and cut once!
If you soak it in water it will expand.
i see everyone is being mean to u for this let me help u ….make a smaller bird house .come on back if u need more help.lol
When you make your cut you should not CUT THE LINE. Cut the long side to make the length perfect.
Keep cutting it until it gets longer. Each time you cut a little bit off a piece of wood it gets longer, so you are just not cutting off enough.
