About Cutbench: Cut List Optimizer
Cutbench turns your parts list into the most material-efficient cutting plan for the plywood and lumber you actually have — then walks you through every single cut at the saw. START IN ONE TAP Pick a template — base cabinet, bookshelf, workbench or drawer boxes — and every part and sheet is filled in for you. Change any dimension to fit your build. STOP WASTING SHEETS Laying out cabinet parts on plywood by hand is slow, and getting it wrong costs you an extra sheet, an extra trip to the lumber yard, and a ruined afternoon. Cutbench computes an optimized layout in under a second — accounting for saw kerf, grain direction, and the stock you actually own. KNOW WHAT TO BUY Every plan comes with a material list: how many sheets and boards you need, with cost totals when you enter prices. Share it straight to your phone's notes or messages before you head to the lumber yard. CUT-ALONG MODE Every other cut-list app stops at a diagram. Cutbench keeps going: a full-screen, one-cut-at-a-time guide that tells you exactly where to cut next, in order, with giant fraction-native measurements you can read from across the shop. Tap "Done" after each cut and move to the next. REMEMBERS YOUR SCRAP Leftover plywood from a finished project gets saved to your offcut bin. Next time you optimize a new project, Cutbench checks your offcuts first — before it tells you to open a fresh sheet. SHARE YOUR PLAN Send your cutting plan as an image to a client, a helper or a woodworking forum. BUILT FOR THE SHOP, NOT A SPREADSHEET • Fraction-native input — type 24 3/8", not 24.375 • Grain-direction locking so parts are never rotated the wrong way • Edge-banding allowance tracking • Sheet goods (plywood, MDF) and linear stock (boards, trim) in one project • Printable cut plans and part labels (PDF export) • Material presets: 4x8 and 4x10 plywood, 5x5 Baltic birch, and more • Inches, decimals or metric • iPad support PRIVACY BY DESIGN Cutbench doesn't need an account, doesn't need the internet, and doesn't collect your project data. Everything lives on your device. PRICING Try it free — unlimited optimizations, one saved project. Cutbench Pro unlocks unlimited projects, unlimited parts, Cut-Along mode, PDF export, and the offcut bin, starting at $24.99/year or $49.99 once, forever.
