First off, thanks for you help in advance and I’m on Dynamo 2.0.2  
I’ve been trying to figure out a method to convert a number to feet and fractional inches while maintaining a format like the following: 12’ - 0" or 12’ - 3" (I don’t currently need fractional inches but it’d be nice to have). I’ve tried using springs.Feet2Fraction (image attached) which works but I can’t figure out how to adjust the node to supply a 0" if the number is an even foot. Is it possible to adjust Springs to accomplish what I’m looking to do or am I stuck with the formatting? Also, if not possible with the spring node, is there a process I can use to achieve this? I did do some digging on this and see the same question in multiple forums but no resolution that I’ve been able to get to work.

You can also do this using the [archi-lab.net](http://archi-lab.net) package like so:

That worked perfect for what I needed. Thanks much Konrad!
