Sunday came to soon.
According to Tools of the Trade what is the number of pounds a typical new home weighs?
Yes I know this now is stretching woodworking a little since a lot of new homes have very little solid wood anymore.

Re: Sunday came to soon.
Using Dan information of 20,000 bd. ft. x 2.5 lbs/bd.ft, softwoods x 3 for general pull out of the air comes to 150,000 lbs.
Thanks for the Sunday extra,

#3The number
It's in the hundrits of thousands of pounds. Take the number that's "bad luck on a match"--that's the hundred thousand number. Put another next to it--that's ten thousand number, then and multiply the two together and you get the thousand number, add a comma, and a zippo, null, and goose egg and that's it. I'm wondrin though, unless it completely prefab or you're going to move it, why would home builders care?

#4The answer
Gary is correct at 330,000 pounds. If you divide that number by 10,000 then you get the number of home depot employees on the U.S. Winter Olympic Team.

#5I saw that.
Besides put on an apron and smile in front of a camera for the commercial, I wonder just how much those athletes do working for Home Depot? Do any of them actually have to show for work or maybe they shake hands at a store? I believe in sport, but this sounds like another scam to hide amateur "gift" income to me. How many U.S. athletes were on the winter team anyway? 330?
