It appears the calculation is wrong when figuring the last plank. He used the initial length of the room verses the subtracted length for expansion. I am not by any means a floor person, but this kind of stood out. Let me know if I am off on this as I am trying to do my floors. Thanks

Does the diagram show the planks laid parallel to the short dimension? I thought they said to lay them parallel to the long dimension. Confusing -- any help is appreciated.

Yep, he said one thing and then did exactly the opposite. I am no expert but you generally want to lay the planks parallel to the long dimension - which is as he said, but not what he did.
