RE: "... rather than that newfangled "2 inch unfinished size, 1 and 3/4 inch finished size" lumber they use nowadays." Not 'new' at all, finished lumber (vs. rough cut) has been measured that way for at least 100 years probably longer. a rough cut 2x4 is 2"x4" but finished (nice and smooth) is 1 3/4" by 3 3/4".
