Editorial interest 77/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A SolidWorks add-in for fabricators that automates drawings, stock nesting, part numbering and priced quote reports.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-14 issue.
For
SolidWorks users who quote fabrication work
Worth noticing
The nesting estimate accounts for saw cuts and tracks offcuts returned to stock; the page says it is not a replacement for cutting software.

Field notes

The workflow reads an open assembly or a folder of parts, then lets the user review quantities and prices before generating a PDF; drawings are saved beside the parts. Its material estimate includes saw cuts and stock-returned offcuts, and the page says purchased hardware such as McMaster-Carr parts can be priced separately. The site explicitly limits the nesting output to a quoting estimate rather than cutting software.
