Panel Planning Input Audit
Before optimizing a cut list, verify the inputs that make the result trustworthy.
- Use one unit system throughout the job.
- Measure real stock dimensions, not nominal sizes.
- Enter blade kerf and any edge-trim allowance.
- Mark parts whose grain direction cannot rotate.
- Separate damaged zones from usable stock.
- Label reusable offcuts before the first cut.
Generate and compare layouts with CutListEngine.
Always confirm the final plan against your tools, material, and workshop safety requirements.
