Free Plywood Cutting Calculator
Hardwood plywood is too expensive to waste on bad layouts. Use our free plywood optimizer to get the absolute maximum yield out of every 4x8 or 2440x1220 sheet.
Built for Woodworkers & DIYers
A proper plywood cutting calculator handles the realities of the workshop:
- Standard Sheet Sizes: Defaults available for 48"x96" (imperial) and 2440x1220mm (metric).
- Grain Awareness: Check a box to prevent the software from rotating parts cross-grain.
- Blade Kerf: Ensure your layout accounts for the 1/8" (3.2mm) your table saw turns to sawdust.
- Track Scraps: Automatically calculates usable offcuts you can save for the next project.
Stop Guessing Your Layouts
Before making a single cut on your track saw or table saw, visualize the entire sheet:
