    Sure it is possible.

    ( 12 ft )( 12 in/ft ) / ( 8 piece ) = 18 in / piece

    12 feet = 144 inches

    divided by 8 is 144/8 = 18 inches per section

    huh? you can cut it into any number of equal pieces. Just take the length and divide by the number.

    12 feet is 144 inches. divide by 8 to get 18 inches each piece.
