Tried to use the board foot calc. that is in the toolbox. It did the calc correctly but when I clicked the print button a blank window opened up and nothing printed. Any suggestions? dan

Swampbuggy, I've never tried to print the results.  I'll give it a try today, maybe someone else will have a suggestion.

I never have used it,no need for me. I don't sell lumber. But it printed for me. Have you used it before and it worked OK than?

I use my maternal grandfathers "Chapins lumber rekoner " circa 1888 .He was a small sawmill operator .

I then cross reference the calculations using this scaler or the one from woodweb .They are close enough to each other for me it makes no difference .Just a rough estimate for conversation more than anything .

maybe my computer setting won't allow the print to open up and I have never had this work.

I'm only guessing, but it may be you need to allow popups for forestryforum.com.
