CutList is a Windows plugin for the popular SketchUp 3D graphics editor. It allows users to visualize future woodworking projects and generate a full list of required materials with exact dimensions and quantities.

Model analysis

After installing the extension you are instructed to import the source 3D object. This add on intelligently identifies and categorizes individual components, distinguishing between sheet goods, solid wood and hardware. Moreover, it is possible to quickly calculate various material properties like thickness, width and length.

Cutting diagrams

All elements are automatically arranged on wood sheets to minimize waste and improve material utilization. Users can generate comprehensive cutting diagrams that visualize the placement of separate components and provide assembly guidance.

CutList helps you save time and reduce the amount of errors during the project preparation phase. There are instruments for improving the overall model accuracy by ensuring that the correct quantities and dimensions of source materials are ordered.
