Completely help: Anyone good with building things? - Help.com

I know the general idea of how to build the cage, heat it, ventilation, hides, etc..
thank you though :)
I just need to know exactly how many 8×4 pieces of plywood I will need to buy for my specific cage i want to build. once i know how many pieces of wood I nedd im all set..

you cant get a 7×6 out of an 8×4. not trying to shoot down everything you say, i really do appreciate your help as i am not the greatest at math and have been trying to figure this out for a while.. its definitely confusing me a lot and id like to figure it out as soon as i can thats why im asking for help :)

I came up with needing (3) 7×4s, (3) 7×2s’, and (2) 6×2’s.. cause there is the additional 2 feet that an 8×4 wont cover on the top, bottom, back. and its going to be 2 units combined that are 7 long x 6 ft high x 2 ft deep. that way there i can disconnect the 2 pieces and fit it out of a doorway without taking it apart completely if needed since we plan on moving soon.

I dunno if thats right but it seems right to me.. I just dont know how to figure out the math on how many 8×4’s i would need for that. i was trying to draw out a bunch of rectangles that represent an 8×4 adn draw lines on where it would be cut to the dimensions i need but i was getting so confused. :/

argh.. I see where i am messing up. see, I keep confusing myself! lol. i dont need 6 feet on the top and bottom so i dont need as many 7×2’s.. that changes things a lot.
so would (3) 7×4’s, 1 7×2, and (2) 6×2’s make more sense?
I just kinda would like someone to couble check what im coming up with, I guess. and then i still dont understand how to figure out how many 8×4’s would give me the right size piieces i need..
I can do taht myself i dnot want you to do everything. what would i be multiplying and adding to figure this out? sorry to be a pain in the @ss

So it think it would be 5 :) like you’ve said…
one for each 7×4 makes 3
one for my 2 6×2s makes 4
and then 1 for my 7×2 makes 5.

im trying to figure it out too.. just need a little help on it.. not coming on here just to have people do it for me :)
I think i finally got it, though.
let me know please adn thank you for helping out

okay no wait.. I wish i could delete old posts i hate to keep writing one after another on here!! i feel like such an annoying person when i do that!
the front unit will need:
Top & bottom = (2) 7×2’s
sides = (2) 6×2’s

back unit to be connected to the front unit:
top & bottom = (2) 7×2’s
sides = (2) 6×2’s
Back = (1) 7×4 & (1) 7×2

so all together i need
(5) 7×2’s = (3) 8×4’s
(4) 6×2’s = (2) 8×4’s
(1) 7×4 = (1) 8×4

which equals 6 8×4s!
:D I think i finally got it! can anyone please double check this?

now let me try to figure out how many 8×4s I’ll need..
