    Default meter cube price to board size price - conversion tool

    anyone know of a utility that will convert a cube price to say 200 x50 or 150x25 or other sizes as required

    my brain is finding it tricky to do the sums
    excel would do a great job
    input meter cube price and board size to yeild a per meter board price
    thanks

    I've knocked one up for you quickly - pretty self explanatory: just enter your m/3 price in the blue box and it'll give you a little matrix of linear meter prices of common sizes. Or you can put custom sizes in the green boxes. If you're feeling truly lazy, you can put a length into the yellow box next to those to get a total price for a piece or pieces.

    Hope that's what you're after...

    Nicely done NZ Stu - I've just tried your spreadsheet and it is easy and straight forward. Thanks

    Takes the rough calls out of the equation. Shame if your a buyer though and the bloke ain't as quick as you.
