I should have read the sign better at my local Home Depot. I started building a cooler in my garage that will be cooled by an AC unit and a coolbot. As I started cutting, I noticed my 24" cuts came up short on the last section. After measuring I realized why. The boards were just a little over 92.5" in length! I looked at the tag/barcode on the end of the boards and they were indeed labeled 2.4x92 5/8. So when did HD start selling lengths that are not 96"? Other than the screwy length, they are very nice straight boards.
