Linear Metres + Square Metres for Board Width and Thickness
Square and Linear measurements are 2 different things, so how can you convert one to the other?
Square Meters measures area. Linear Meters measures length. If your material comes in set widths, you can calculate the area a given total length of this material will cover.
And if you know the total area to cover, you can calculate the length of material at a given width, to fit the area.

If you're cutting blocks, concrete, stone or
ANYTHING
and there's
DUST - DON'T TAKE THE RISK
Don't cut it, or cut it wet so there's
NO DUST
-
Silicosis Sucks
And if you're cutting wet, wear a mask - there's dust in the spray mist too!

What do we think? - They're 2 different things:
A
Meter
is a device to measure things - like a Volt Meter or a Parking Meter
A
Metre
is about 3'-3~3/8"
Although diameter and perimeter as measurements - don't seem to fit very well
If the U.S. ever goes Metric, you'll be able to use a Meter to measure Meters - A Meter Meter
(And when we go
back to the moon
to Mars, this time, let's go Metric, ay?)
GO Artemis II !! (thats 2, not eleven - and Artemis is Metric, not Imperial, no matter what they say)
