Measure Twice, Cut Once

Ever heard the old saw (ooh bad pun) “measure twice, cut once”? The basic thrust is that if you measure the board properly and identify exactly where the saw is supposed to go, you won’t be cutting a second time. Sure, “eyeballing” can be faster if you’re a custom home builder with a great eye and are a little lucky, but more often than not most of us would benefit from a little planning.
