Board cutting

Every panel. Precisely planned.

Select published boards, enter finished sizes and keep compatible edging, machining, hardware and coating with the correct part. Supported cut lists proceed to optimisation and pricing; specialist work takes the review path.

A clearer specification

Turn a component list into one connected production brief.

Board Cutting is for projects where the component sizes are already known. Every material, edge, drawing and production instruction stays attached to the part it belongs to.

Specify

Build the project from finished components.

Choose the exact board, then enter finished length, width, quantity, grain direction and a stable part name. Full sheets can be included alongside cut components.

  • Manual component entry
  • Current Excel template import
  • Published board and thickness selection
  • Grain-match groups

Add production work

Describe every operation in context.

Apply compatible edging to L1, L2, W1 and W2, add drilling or specialist machining, attach drawings, select furniture fittings and request compatible spray finishing.

Pricing and review

Follow the path the specification supports.

Supported cut lists proceed through optimisation and pricing. Unresolved specialist instructions require staff review before the confirmed quote and payment stage. Approved saw or CNC output remains a separate production-release decision.

One connected specification

Keep every decision with the panel it belongs to.

Start with known finished sizes, quantities and exact published boards. Add compatible edges, machining and finish to the same named parts. Supported cut lists can proceed through optimisation and pricing; unresolved specialist work takes the staff-review path before payment and approved production release.

Build a complete component brief

Part identity connects every later manufacturing instruction.

A stable name and exact published material give edging, drawings, hardware and review notes one unambiguous component to refer to.

Define the finished component

Enter its stable name, finished length, width, quantity, material and grain direction.

Attach required operations

Add edge selections, machining, drawings, fittings or compatible coating to the correct part.

Submit one connected brief

Supported work proceeds to optimisation and pricing; unresolved specialist work goes to staff review. Payment and approved production output remain later stages.

Before entry or import

Prepare the data that keeps every row identifiable.

The current workbook template and manual entry use the same production concepts.

  1. Stable part name

  2. Finished length and width in millimetres

  3. Whole-number quantity

  4. Published material and thickness

  5. Grain direction and matching intent

  6. Edge and machining requirements

  7. Drawing or reference for specialist work

Before you begin

A few useful answers.

The practical details, so you can take the next step with confidence.

Should I use Board Cutting or Furniture Studio?

Use Board Cutting when the finished component dimensions are already known. Use Studio when furniture configuration should define the parts.

Can I mix full sheets and cut components?

Yes. Full-sheet requirements can remain in the same project as specified cut parts.

Can I import a workbook?

Yes. Use the current supplied template so product codes, units, quantities and component fields match the supported import structure.

Does submitting start production?

No. Supported work proceeds to optimisation and pricing, while unresolved specialist work requires staff review. Confirmed pricing, payment and approved technical output precede production release.
