This same method is used to enter and store custom block sizes. For example, if you were working
with bricks sized 4 Inches by 8 Inches, you would solve for the area and then store as block size:
(Blk Size)

These equations assume a standard block side of 8 Inches by 16 Inches (or 128 Square. Inches).
Calculations are made on the basis of the area of the block.
Before perfomring these calculations, check the stored block size using (Blocks)
