You would have wanted a carpenter with big feet, so you would get more wood per foot. Same with cloth sellers; they measured a yard from nose to fingertip, so you'd want one with long arms.#6: Carol Kambeitz (ckambeitz) on Mar 20, 2014
A cubit, in case you don't know, is the distance from elbow to fingertip. And for all you barefoot solvers, your foot fits exactly against the inside of your forearm, from elbow to wrist.
That's my useless trivia for the day. :)
Ha! How creative! Loved it...#7: David Bouldin (dbouldin) on Nov 16, 2016 [SPOILER]
Yeah, you'd be shorted a little if I were a carpenter, my foot is only 11-5/8" long. Guess I'd probably be wearing shoes though...so that makes me a bargain!#8: Teresa K (fasstar) on Jul 16, 2017
One more bit of trivia: The human feet contain 1/4 of all of our bones.
Hahaha. Good one, Brian.
