Nine bookshelf panels.

50.8% is finished-part area divided by the original area of the two used sheets. Offcuts, trim and blade loss are not finished parts.

What is SheetPlan?
A standalone HTML app designed for desktop browsers. Open the downloaded file, enter rectangular parts and generate a layout. Each project uses one material, thickness and sheet size, with up to 500 pieces and 50 sheets.
Where are my projects stored?
Calculations run on your device. Explicitly save a project to download its JSON file, then reopen that file later. Keep your own backups; the app does not provide cloud sync.
Does it guarantee the lowest waste?
No. It compares 24 arrangements and shows the best one it finds. It does not guarantee a mathematically optimal layout or automatically identify grain direction. Rotation is controlled for each part.
Can I cut directly from the plan?
Check dimensions, blade width and grain orientation first. The geometric cut sequence does not assess machine safety, workholding or material defects.
Can I buy it now?
Not yet. SheetPlan is in pre-release testing. Pricing, purchasing and customer support details will be published when the download is ready for sale.
