CutPlan: Cut List Optimiser

Enter the pieces you need. CutPlan shows how many boards and sheets to buy and where to cut each one — kerf included. Offline, one-time purchase, no ads.

Stop wasting timber. CutPlan tells you exactly how many boards and sheets to buy, and where to make every cut — before you drive to the DIY store.

Give it the pieces you need. It gives you the cutting plan that wastes the least material, drawn out cut by cut.

TWO KINDS OF CUTTING, ONE APP

• Linear (1D): studs, dowels, pipe, skirting and moulding — anything you cut to length. Get the fewest stock lengths and where to cut each one.
• Panel (2D): plywood, MDF, melamine, glued panels — anything you cut from a sheet. Get a true nesting layout that packs your parts into the fewest sheets.

BUILT FOR THE TIMBER MERCHANT

• Pick your stock from presets — standard sawn timber, plywood sheets and common stock lengths — with one tap
• Set the saw kerf (blade thickness) so the plan matches reality. A cut list that ignores kerf leaves you short — CutPlan never does.
• Lock grain direction on panels so the wood pattern runs the right way
• See your total material cost before you buy: number of stock pieces × price, plus per-cut charges

A CUTTING DIAGRAM YOU CAN FOLLOW

• Every board and sheet drawn to scale, with each part placed and labelled
• A clear cut list: this length, this many times, from this stock
• Offcut (waste) amount and yield for every plan
• Export the diagram and cut list as PDF or image to take with you (Pro)

HONEST AND OFFLINE

• Works completely offline. No account, no ads, no subscription.
• One-time Pro unlock for unlimited saved projects, PDF export and custom stock sizes

Whether you are building a bookshelf from plywood, framing a wall with timber, or cutting trim for a whole room, CutPlan turns a pile of measurements into a buy list and a cutting plan that does not waste your material.

Not affiliated with any timber merchant or tool manufacturer. Always double-check measurements before cutting.
