- bluGill 7y agoEverybody thinks that, but it isn't true. historically some sawmills where producing 2x4s that were 2x4, while others were using different sizes (I can't find evidence but I'm guessing they were trying to cheat their customers for profit and get away with it). What matters isn't the actual size though, what matters is that when you are short a piece of wood you can get one that fits.
