Sawgrid vs Cabinetmaker Calc

Stop guessing how to break down a sheet. Enter your panel sizes and your part list, and Sawgrid works out the layout that gets the most out of every board. Built for cabinetmakers, joiners, furniture makers, metal fabricators, laser and CNC shops, and anyone who buys material by the full sheet. Every cut Sawgrid produces runs edge to edge across the panel, which is exactly what a table saw or a panel saw can actually execute. WHAT SAWGRID DOES - 2D panel nesting built only from through cuts your saw can follow - 1D length cutting for trim, tube, bar and profile, in the same project - Runs all 108 optimisation strategies and keeps the best result - Edge trim on the outside edges counted exactly, never estimated - Every requested part is either placed or reported with a reason. Nothing is dropped in silence - Millimetres, centimetres and inches, including fractions like 2' 6 3/4 SAWGRID PRO - Multi page PDF with the cut map, part list, cut sequence and labels, plus the cut list as CSV - Your own saw kerf, instead of the fixed 3 mm every free plan is solved with - Grain direction per part: free to rotate, forced lengthwise or forced crosswise - Several materials and thicknesses in one project, one run, separate plans per material - More than one saved project, side by side - Saw table mode: the next cut shown large, the screen stays awake, tick each cut off - Offcut stock that gets used up before you open a fresh sheet - Thorough optimisation: a second pass that often saves another panel on a big job Pro is available as a subscription or as a one time purchase. Calculating layouts is free, for as many parts and panels as a real job has, and a free plan is the whole plan: the cut map, the utilisation and the area balance. Free works on one project at a time, with one material in it, and a fixed 3 mm saw kerf that the result screen states every time. Everything is computed on your device. There is no account and no project leaves the phone. Only the advertising in the free version needs a connection, and Pro carries none. Sawgrid works in a basement workshop with no signal.

Cabinetmaker Calc is a practical offline tool for cabinetmakers and furniture installers. It helps you plan drawer layouts, calculate drawer component dimensions and prepare drilling positions for furniture fittings. DRAWERS AND BOX SYSTEMS The app supports overlay and inset fronts, different runner lengths, steel and wooden backs, internal drawers, Gola profiles and compatible TIP-ON / PUSH variants. Supported box systems: • Blum TANDEMBOX antaro • Blum MERIVOBOX • Blum LEGRABOX • Hettich AvanTech YOU • Hettich InnoTech Atira • Strong StrongBox • Strong StrongMax 16 • Strong StrongMax 18 • Häfele Matrix S Slim • GTV MODERN BOX PRO • GTV AXIS PRO 16 • GTV AXIS PRO 18 • GTV MODERN BOX SQUARE • GRASS Nova Pro Scala • Level SPACE PRO • Level BOX Drawer calculations include: • dimension and installation-space checks • a clear diagram of the complete cabinet • drilling heights and positions for cabinet runners • drawer-front drilling, including drilling-template mode • dimensions for drawer bottoms, drawer backs and other drawer components • calculations for internal drawers and Gola profiles • installation PDFs for sharing, printing or saving • automatic front-height distribution and calculation of remaining fronts • multiple internal drawers behind one front • runner variants, load capacities and mounting-hole rows according to the selected system • independent upward adjustment of an outer drawer and Gola C dimensions to the centre or lower edge NARROW CABINETS Configure 1–8 drawers behind a shared front and choose which are attached to the front and which are internal. Edit storage heights directly in the side-view diagram, check minimum heights and available space, and allow finger clearance above internal fronts. Automatic layout assigns the required minimum to internal drawers and distributes the remaining space between attached drawers. You can raise the bottom drawer independently. The installation PDF fits on one A4 page and includes larger side-panel diagrams, drilling positions and drawer component dimensions. Save box and narrow-cabinet assemblies under a name and load them again later. The assembly name also appears in the PDF. The app also includes tools for Blum MOVENTO and TANDEM runner systems with wooden drawer sides. LIFT SYSTEMS The calculator helps determine the front weight, suitable lift mechanism, drilling positions, required installation space and ordering summary for: • Blum AVENTOS HK top • Blum AVENTOS HK-S • Blum AVENTOS HK-XS • Blum AVENTOS HF top • Blum AVENTOS HS top • Blum AVENTOS HL top MORE WORKSHOP TOOLS • furniture-handle drilling calculations • even spacing of cabinet-door hinges • cutlery-tray dimensions • shelf layout and shelf-support drilling • squareness checks using diagonal measurements • component dimensions for an individual drawer • a local list of installation jobs and notes • clear technical diagrams and dimensions OFFLINE CALCULATIONS, NO ACCOUNT OR ADVERTISING The app works offline, requires no registration and contains no advertising. Entered dimensions, settings and installation jobs remain stored directly on your device. Values and calculations are continuously checked against manufacturers’ catalogues, installation instructions, planning tools and electronic services. Before production, always verify the entered dimensions and consult the manufacturer’s current technical documentation.
