WorkshopCut vs Cutly

Stop guessing how to arrange parts and start cutting with a clear plan. WorkshopCut turns a cut list into optimized 2D sheet layouts for plywood, MDF, melamine, OSB, particleboard, and other panel materials. Enter your stock sizes and required parts, then generate a practical cutting plan that accounts for real workshop constraints. OPTIMIZE MATERIAL • Compare multiple layout strategies • Minimize sheets, improve material use, simplify cuts, or reduce cost • Account for saw kerf and edge trim • Respect grain direction and rotation locks • Plan with multiple stock sizes, quantities, and prices • See utilization, cut counts, costs, and reusable remnants CUT WITH CONFIDENCE • Follow every cut in step-by-step Workshop Mode • See the active workpiece, cut direction, and exact cut position • Inspect, zoom, and select individual parts • View clear dimensions directly on the sheet layout • Track edge banding on each side of a part SAVE AND REUSE OFFCUTS • Identify useful leftover material automatically • Save remnants to your inventory • Include compatible remnants in future optimizations • Track available and consumed offcuts EXPORT COMPLETE PLANS • Create detailed, workshop-ready PDF cutting plans • Include every sheet, part, measurement, and cut sequence • Import or export part lists with CSV • Share plans for printing or workshop use BUILT FOR REAL PROJECTS • Millimeters or inches • Decimal and fractional measurements • Projects for cabinets, furniture, shelving, kitchens, closets, and DIY builds • Clean native experience for iPhone and iPad • Projects and calculations stay on your device WorkshopCut is designed for woodworkers, cabinet makers, carpenters, furniture builders, DIY makers, and anyone who cuts sheet goods. Measure carefully and verify every dimension and cut before using a generated plan in your workshop. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

How many boards do you need to buy, and where do you cut each one? Cutly takes your stock length, your saw's kerf and your list of cuts, and lays them out on as few boards as it can — as a labeled cutting diagram PDF you can take to the saw. Enter the stock length and blade kerf, add each cut with a label, length and quantity, then tap Make Cut Diagram PDF. • CUT LIST IN, BOARDS OUT — add cuts like "shelf 30 in × 4" or "leg 720 mm × 4". Up to 500 pieces per job. • KERF ACCOUNTED FOR — the blade width is charged between neighbouring cuts on the same board, so the pieces really fit. • FEWER BOARDS — pieces are packed longest-first with the First-Fit Decreasing method, a fast, proven way to keep the board count and offcuts low. • A DIAGRAM FOR EVERY BOARD — each stock board is drawn with its labeled cuts left to right and the leftover waste shaded. • STOCK SUMMARY — total boards, pieces and yield %, plus used length, waste and cut count for every board. • INCHES OR MILLIMETERS — work in either unit. Print the PDF, share it or save it to Files. Honest scope: Cutly is a linear (1D) cut list — boards, battens, trim, pipe, bar or tube cut to length from one stock length per job. It doesn't lay out plywood or sheet goods, handle grain direction or mix different stock lengths. First-Fit Decreasing gives a very good layout quickly, but it isn't guaranteed to be the absolute minimum. Everything is calculated on your iPhone — nothing is uploaded and no account is needed.
