The cut list, sheet layout and files for this unit

What the workshop receives

The cut list of the unit above, as its CAD model measures the parts: sizes in mm, length × width × thickness. It changes as you change the window seat.

16 panels: 2.93 m² of 18 mm board, 0.51 m² of 6 mm panel. Weight 36.9 kg.

Edge banding: 10.7 m of Natural oak, 4.6 m of Warm white.

Sheet layout

The panels above, laid out on standard boards for the panel saw.

  • Part, numbered as the cut list
  • Offcut to keep, 300 × 300 mm or more
  • Waste

Boards of 2800 × 2070 mm (plywood 2440 × 1220); a 4 mm saw kerf between parts and 10 mm trimmed off every edge. Each thickness, material and finish has its own boards, veneer and wood finishes keep their grain along the board, and every cut runs straight across, as a panel saw cuts. Waste is what can't be used again: the saw's cuts, the trimmed edges and offcuts too small to keep.

Example price

An example with made-up rates, not a quote. A shop puts in its own: boards by area and finish, edge banding by the metre, cutting by panel, hardware by count.

How it was built

16 bodies, rebuilt in 187 ms in advance by a real CAD engine from one parametric design. Its parameters:
