A cutting list, which can also be known as a material list, bill of materials, or schedule of materials is simply a listing of all the parts that will be required to construct a project.
This article explains all you need to know to start creating your own cutting lists to gain efficiency, accuracy and stop wasting lumber.
With a cutting list in hands, you will now have to actually cut all parts specified in it. At this moment you can use a cutting optimization software, also known as nesting software, that will do the job of finding the best arrangement of the parts over the available material.
Just input all cutting list information on the nesting software and let it create the best cutting layouts for you. It will maximize your savings and reduce planning time.
