🌟 Why Choose EZ Lumber?

Stop wrestling with manual calculations and unit conversions. EZ Lumber lets you focus on design while handling all the technical details automatically. Whether you're planning a simple shelf or an entire deck, this add-on saves time and reduces errors by working with real-world lumber dimensions.

Key Features:

• Accurate Dimensions: Generate lumber pieces based on standard nominal sizes (e.g., 1x4, 2x6, 4x4), using actual dimensions derived from industry standards.

• Customizable Length: Define the exact length of each lumber piece, ranging from 0.1 to 20 feet, with seamless conversion from feet to Blender's internal metric system.

• User-Friendly Interface: Easily select the desired lumber size from a convenient dropdown menu, and specify length directly in feet, for faster modeling and precision.

• Automatic Mesh Creation: EZ Lumber automatically generates mesh objects that are scaled to match real-world measurements, ensuring your 3D models align with practical dimensions.

• Versatile Use Cases: Ideal for any project that involves realistic representation of lumber, including architecture, furniture design, and construction modeling.

Supported Lumber Sizes:
