Thank you so much!
We'll see if other finished practice sizes come out using this formula and using this method.
I would love to correct the chart for everyone with your formula.
So the 5" blocks -.5 x1.4 -.5 = 5.8
10" block - .5 x 1.4 - .5 = 12.8
That's interesting.
It won't matter as long as ALL the blocks are the same size.
If you planned to mix these blocks with other blocks then you would have a problem.
A few people are going to make and measure and post tomorrow so we can check it out.
:-D
