  • Not sure what went wrong

    This app was great when I downloaded it 7 years ago, having not used it for a few years, now doing a simple project needing 3 pieces 25" x 39" each from a 48x96 sheet of plywood. No matter which cut method I chose, shows same result, requiring 2 sheets of plywood. One long cut leaving 39x96, three at 25" wide and I need 2 sheets? My kerf is 1/8 inch, not 10 inches. Gee.

  • I would not use

    This app has left off items that I have imputed and crashes regularly. I am not satisfied and would not recommend using this app to anyone.

  • Waste

    I couldn't get the app to work. I tried contacting the developer and the link they had to submit a message to them was invalid. Nine bucks straight down the toilet.

  • Does not function properly.

    App allows you to create new project and enter piece dimensions. That's it. It does not have the draw icons at the bottom of iPhone screen as shown. Absolutely would like my money back. $8.99, when what I get is essentially a list of the cuts I have already had on paper and a waste of 20 minutes. Could be a really useful app if it at all functioned correctly.

  • Really ?

    Just tried the app after this most recent update and was immediately confronted with a bug.

    On an iPad in landscape mode and selecting fraction input to create an item, the measurement selection is completely buggy and non responsive at times. It also fails to show the selected values correctly due to input field corruption by previous value.

    How can something this significant and obvious at the starting point be missed.

    Seriously, test your products more thoroughly before releasing them to the public.

  • Works well for small jobs

    Works well for smaller jobs but wish we could enter shapes somehow. Gets stuck on large jobs, (2000 pcs) just spins its wheels for a long time. Tried letting it run for multiple hours once just to see if it would eventually kick out the nest. It never did. It also needs a better method to print out the nest. Doesn't print out so well, in fact its a PITA.

  • Can I get a refund?

    Though the built in example works, I can't enter parts for a new item/project. There seems to be no interface element to do this, no way I can find, and I wasted a lot of time looking. No manual. Maybe it is because of iOS 8?

  • Doesn't seem to be a finished app

    If you like instructions on how to use an app, this is not for you. Sure, some of the interface is iPad standard, but much is not. This is un-intuitive in the extreme. When you enter cut pieces that do not fit onto your board stock, they simply don't show up... There is no warning or message that they are not on the cutting diagram. Also, I liked the idea of emailing a cutting diagram to "export" it, since I don't have a printer that works with my ipad... But I selected inches as my unit of measure, but no matter what, it emails in millimeters or something. When I emailed support, they asked me again what the problem was, I emailed again, and no response.
    This app is not ready for sale.

  • Suggestion

    This app saved me a bunch of time figuring out the best way to cut 25 pieces out of 5 sheets of plywood and there's nothing else out there like this, so I can't complain. This is more of a suggestion. I wanted to print the layouts for use in the shop, but when I emailed the files it changed the measurements from inches to millimeters and the layouts looked completely different. Also the files came through as .xml files which are not easy to save or print (at least for me). Definitely some bugginess in the export function or there's a preference setting I couldn't find.
