What for? Easy of calculation? You might be able to find a lumber yard that makes

You can certainly get it from the wreckage of an old

Recycling old lumber is a big thing in these parts, and I'm sure in other

I have a pile of dimensional 2x6 circa 1885 virgin

away here...
Too bad I can do nothing about that at this point in time.
