My question is: the block size is supposed to be 2 3/8": what size do I cut my blocks to use the Fons and Porter ruler? Is it an extra 7/8"? That would make my cuts at 3 1/4"? Thanks in advance for the help.
That is an odd size for a block... I haven't seen that size for a block before. That would make the cutting a nightmare for me :oops:
