DIY project material calculator

Turn a cut list into linear feet with a waste allowance.

How to read the result

Match the total to board lengths the store sells. The tool does not do that matching for you.

Total feet equals piece count times length, times one plus the waste percent.

Waste defaults are not a structural calculation. Do not size beams with this tool.
