Cut List & Board Feet
List the stock you have and the parts you need. LumberList fits them together, leaves a kerf between every cut, and tells you how many sheets it took and how much of them you threw away.

Here is what the packer does to a single 8 ft 2x4 when you ask it for two 32 in legs, a 22 in rail and an 8 in brace. Longest first, a blade width between each one, whatever is left at the end is offcut.
32 + 32 + 22 + 8= 94 in of part
three cuts at 1/8 in= 3/8 in of blade
96 − 94-3/8= 1-5/8 in offcut, 1.7% waste
Sheets used
How many pieces of stock the plan consumed, and what they cost.
Parts placed
Out of the parts you asked for. Anything longer than your longest board is listed separately, with the reason.
Waste
Per sheet and across the whole plan. Nudge a dimension, run it again, watch the number move.
The layout
Drawn to scale, one page per sheet, with every part labelled where it sits. Flip to the parts list to tick them off at the saw.
SHEET GOODS
Packs in two directions across the panel and keeps the cuts guillotine, so a track saw or a table saw can follow them. Each part can be told to run with the long side, the short side, or either, and anything that had to break the rule is flagged on the result.
LINEAR LUMBER
Packs along the length. Longest part first onto the first board with room for it, then the next, kerf allowed between each. When a board is full it opens another one and keeps going.
A board foot is volume, not length, which is why the number surprises people at the hardwood counter. Thickness and width in inches, length in feet, divided by twelve. LumberList keeps it on its own screen with a price per board foot beside it, and drops each result into a short history so you can compare two species without retyping.
8/4 WALNUT, ONE BOARD
The lumber cost screen next door does the other half of the trip: a row per item with quantity and unit price, a subtotal, your local tax rate, and a grand total you can share as plain text.
Bundled with the app, so they work in a workshop with no bars of signal.
What a 2x4 really measures, from 1x2 up to 4x6, in inches and in millimetres. The one everybody looks up and nobody remembers.
Standard panel sizes and thicknesses, in both unit systems.
Screw and nail sizes with what each one is normally used for.
Janka hardness and weight per board foot, kiln dried, for the woods you are likely to be choosing between.
PRO UNLOCK
$4.99one-time
One payment. Nothing renews.
You list your stock and your parts. It packs the parts onto as few pieces of stock as it can, leaves a saw kerf between every cut, and draws the layout sheet by sheet.
Both, as two separate modes. Sheet goods packs in two directions across a panel. Linear lumber packs along the length of a board, which is how a 2x4 gets cut.
Yes. Enter 23-1/2 or 3/4 and it reads them properly. Switch the whole app to millimetres in settings if you work metric.
In sheet mode each part can be set to run with the long side, the short side, or either. Parts that could not be placed the way you asked are called out on the result.
The width your blade removes on every cut, 3.2 mm or about 1/8 in by default. It is subtracted between pieces, so the layout is one you can actually cut.
Everything is open for fourteen days. After that three saved projects and the calculators stay free, and $4.99 once removes the ads, lifts the project limit and prints the full cut plan without a watermark.
Neither. Projects, cut plans and calculations live on the phone. Nothing is uploaded and there is nothing to sign into.
