| (...) Now I'm thoroughly confuzzed. :) I thought Jacob said that an LDU = 1/4 LU, which would have been in reference to the LU which means 1/5 of the inter- stud spacing and 1/6 of a standard brick height. So a Jessiman LDU = 1/40 of the standard (...) (26 years ago, 15-Feb-99, to lugnet.general)
