For DIY woodworkers, cabinetmakers, furniture shops and glass or acrylic cutters, CutList Optimization helps plan how to cut parts from stock sheets while reducing offcuts and checking how many sheets a project requires. Enter each part’s dimensions and quantity, then add the size and quantity of your available sheets. The browser-based calculator works with rectangular materials such as plywood, MDF, melamine, chipboard, hardboard, glass and acrylic. Set the saw-blade kerf, keep parts aligned with the grain, match parts to the right material, and mark edges for banding. Choose a layout focused on minimizing waste or one that is easier to cut. The results include scaled diagrams, labeled parts, numbered guillotine-cut sequences, sheet and waste statistics, and edge-banding totals. Save projects in your browser, or print the plans and export diagrams and cut lists for use in the workshop.
