Hey! I've finally built a replacement for this tool that I think is up to par. It includes some of your requests and should work well on mobile devices. Try out Cutlist Workbench and let me know what you think.

This calculator attempts to generate the most efficient cut list for a given set of pieces. Note my use of the word "attempts." There are several ways to solve this problem and several "correct" answers. This tries one way and gives you a correct answer. It's based on linear board-feet and so works only in the one dimension. I may expand it to handle plywood at some point in the future but don't count on it.

Step 1: Available stock - Select the available lengths:

Add a custom stock: inches (decimal numbers only)

Description: Add

Save (optional) will store the stock lengths to a cookie so your browser will remember them in the future. Saved stock will automatically be loaded when you visit this site. This is experimental.

Step 2: Method - Select which method you prefer:

Cheapest - assume longer boards are more actually expensive but cheaper per inch

Step 3: Cut Width - Enter how much of the board is lost to each cut (width of the blade):

"

Step 4: Piece List - Enter a list of board lengths you need to obtain:

Component List ID Quantity Length

(in.) " Add

Clear Pieces

Step 5: Output options:

Output to new window — good for printing but you might have to twiddle your print settings to make it look good

Step 6: Ready, steady, GO!

Step 7: Once you're happy with your results, you might want to save or print them off. Set the "Output to new window" option above and the results will go into a popup window.
