Field notes
The described workflow accepts pasted spreadsheet parts or cabinet dimensions, then accounts for board sizes, grain direction, offcuts, edge banding, and material cost. The homepage says its optimizer tests 48 layouts per board and restricts plans to straight-through cuts for panel, track, or table saws. It also lists printable workshop PDFs, Avery L7160 labels, and exports for Cut Rite or cut-to-size services.
