can I use 2 2x6s instead for 3 2x4s?

You can on the topI used two 2x6 and a 2x4 on the top but the brace in the middle is moulded for a 2x4

The holes are pre-drilled in the pieces. The crosspiece in the bottom HAS to be a 2x4 because the ends of it actually slide into the leg base and a 2x6 would not fit. And it does need this piece for stability. As for the seat itself, I'm thinking you probably could use the larger size, maybe using 3 pieces rather than the four called for but you might have to drill some holes yourself.

The molded plastic ends are pre drilled to accommodate four 2x4's, not three. Two 2x6s will not cover the plastic base; my bench constructed with four 2x4s has a slight gap between boards and measures 15 inches wide. The support plank across the bottom must be 2x4. As a matter of interest, a 2x4 is actually 3.5 inches wide and a 2x6 is actually 5.5 inches wide, so the substitution you mentioned will not yield the same total width measurements.

Yes you can. Also, you can use 2 2X8s, or 2 2X6s and 1 2X4. You may have to adjust the uprights so there is not too much overhang or causes pinching on your buttinsky. Just pre measure the widths of your boards and experiment from there. You may have to drill some extra holes for greater stability.

I'm not sure because the plastic legs have slots for the screws that are spaced for 2x4's. If you use 2x8's I'm sure you would hit enough of the slots but the gaps between the pieces of wood may be too large. When we put ours together I was kind of surprised how large the gap was between the 2x4's. I'm sure they make the plastic legs wide enough that it won't cause a problem if your 2x4's are not 100% straight as so often happens. So if you use four 2x8's you would only have 3 gaps between the pieces of wood instead of 7 gaps using eight 2x4's.

yes.2x6 boards (which is what this is designed for) refers to the with before it is trimmed at the lumber mill. after trimming a 2x6 is technically a 1 1/2" x 5 1/2"

yes it does 4x6 into 2 2x6 strips , just you need to select that option in the printer. I am using this printer with my photobooth and I like cuz its very fast. I havent any problem yet. let me know if you have any question.

yes - you will need to add additional lumber. 2x4s will most likely work but be prepared to shave them down just a tad.

4x6x4 is a thicker feel than the 2x5x2. It all has to do with thickness. The 4x6x4 absorbs more and is better quality. :)

4x6 is what the "slots" are for. I have put larger postcards in it, but it requires breaking the separation between the slots.

Yes, there are different sized rolls for 5x7 and 4x6. You cannot use the same roll to print both sizes.

I used 4x4's. You could use 4x6 if you wanted. It all depends how long of a beam you are using. I have a total of 4 swings on my swing with one swing on the opposite side of the upright support

Not without replacing the whole chassis. It would cost more to convert than buy a 4 x4

I have never tried it, but I think you can, as the sizes are the same, both 2" x 3". Hope that helps.

I've only seen 4x6. Not sure if a 4x4 might not be strong enough, unless you had a short span and only going to be used by small children. Even the 4x6 flexes a little at a 12 foot span.

Fits best on 2x4 or 2x6 railings...can be modified but not nearly as stable.

Yes, I believe so. I cut them (I think in half) and I have a 4.5x6, so if it was half not 4ths, yes.

Yes, this saw will do 2x4s or 2x6s, for example, but I'd keep in mind that the saw probably is not for 3x3 or larger wooden posts. I'm just guessing on the largest size, however, from the size of the blade and overall size of the unit. This saw easily cuts paneling, however. Two blades come with the saw: a coarse blade for wood, and a fine-tooth blade for metal and plastic or PVC piping. So far the saw has done a great job for various tasks, and it's very compact and comfortable to use. I've used it mainly for planks about an inch thick, and fallen tree branches that need to be trimmed.

Yes you could use a 2.0. The number refers to the width just like you suspected.
