Abstract: A building member forming apparatus is comprised of standardized metric dimensioned panels including plywood paneling, outer horizontal support beams, vertical support beams, and inner horizontal support beams. A conversion corner bracket has a first leg and a second leg joined to form a right angle, a V-shaped indented outer corner, and a rounded inside corner opposite the V-shaped indented corner. The conversion corner bracket is attached to the panels by securing members which secure the conversion corner bracket to the vertical support beam of the panels. The conversion corner allows the apparatus to convert standardized dimensioned panels for use with either metric or U.S. customary unit-based construction structures.
Abstract: A building member forming apparatus comprises panels and a conversion corner bracket. The panels are typically dimensioned in metric units. The conversion corner bracket can include a leg having a predetermined width and a body configured to chamfer a building member. The conversion corner bracket is securable to the panels to form an orifice. When the orifice receives a construction material, the building member can be formed. By using the panels and the conversion corner bracket, the building member that has been formed within the orifice is chamfered and possesses U.S. customary units. Thus, the conversion corner creates a chamfer upon the building member and permits dimensioned panels with one set of units to form a building member with another set of units. Preferably, the leg and the body are not symmetrical and include bores or apertures that align with bores or apertures in the building member forming apparatus.
