Keep adding features

I’ve only been playing with this app for a couple hours and so far I’m liking it for the most part. I’m working on a project now for steel stairs with handrails and I really think it would be a great addition to this app if I had the option to select say a 10@15.3 C-channel stringer or other materials from the charts already in the app. The option to be able to select handrails or not and what material they would be made from would be another great button on the stair builder as well and then it give a total weight for estimating erection/installation costs. I really like this app so far, but I do see room for upgrades that in my experience would make it so much more enticing for people like myself trying to bid jobs.

Thank you for the 5 stars and for writing this up so clearly. Stairs with handrails are exactly the kind of job this app is built for, so this is really useful. Picking a channel such as a C10x15.3 from the section charts as the stringer, turning handrails on or off with a choice of material, and getting a total weight for erection and install pricing all make sense for bidding work. We are looking at how to add all three to the stair builder. Jay

Thanks, really appreciate that. That's exactly why I built it. A lot of this stuff you only pick up after years on the job, or when someone finally shows you. If there's anything you'd like added or explained better, let me know and I'll look at getting it into a future update. Glad it's helping!

The stock cutting should be free

Ace app but I just need the stock cutting calc but not any of the other pro features

Game changer

I came across this app somehow and ever since I did, it’s been an absolute blessing.. being able to develop cad like drawings and work out weights and optimised cutting etc at the touch of a button is just brilliant. Small business owners like me will save thousands by using this app.
Highly recommend 👍🏼

Thank you, That's why I built it I'm a small fabricator myself and know the struggles and costs involved in this game 😊

Nice but to expensive

Maybe a one time purchase but with the price point per week and no guarantee the app will be finished with a fixed price. I’d rather use Ai with all the hassle.

Response from developer

Thanks for the honest feedback, and let me clear one thing up: there's no weekly plan. It's monthly or yearly only, and the yearly works out at under a dollar a week. Six of the tools are free with no time limit, so you can check the accuracy against your own jobs before paying anything. On it being finished: it's on 21 tools now and another update is with Apple as I write this. The subscription is what pays for that development. If it ever stops improving, cancel and you keep the free tools. If there's a specific calculation you need that isn't in there, tell me what it is and I'll look at getting it into the next update.
