  They'll cut it to fit into your car, but they aren't going to cut it precisely to what you want it to be. At least around here.

    eh, the "Lows" across the street and the "home depot" down the way both cut far more precisely than I can manage on my own. It's not going to be to micrometer precision, but when working with the mostly green wood those places sell, nothing ever is. The stuff changes shape as it ages anyhow. It's probably better than what you can do as an amateur with cheap tools, and it's probably good enough for a project such as this. Of course, if you actually know what you are doing and have reasonably good tools, you can do better, but for those of us who just want to knock something together, my experience has been that the lumberyard cutting services are just fine.

    I've had Home Depot cut wood to my measurements ~6 times at 3 different Home Depots. They've done a fine job each time. (Also, do you see the precision of that "woodworking"?)
