My wife is an expert seamstress. She is also a research chemist. I am a woodworker and electrical engineer. We have talked about how clothes construction and woodworking have many similarities. I taught her some things about using my table saw and she let's me get on her Bernina sewing machine every once in a while.

Subject: Re: [DIY] Wood Cut Sheet
All this talk about laying out your pattern so as not to waste any material - making sure you get everything aligned with the grain - cutting precisely on the cutting line so you get a good fit......sounds suspecially like man code for making a new dress, LOL. Sawing sounds better than Sewing right?

I’m looking for a better way to layout a cut sheet for a woodworking project. I have my materials list, but need to figure out what sizes wood I need to minimize waste. Drawing the layout by hand can get tedious and prone to arithmetic mistakes.
