Is there a way to create a ply cut list for all?
Post by androsi on Feb 12^th, 2017, 11:35am

Hello all, Is there a way to make a master ply cut list that would include all of the cabinets in the drawing. (the way im doing it now i get a ply layout for each cabinet but some of them are only using like 25 percent of the ply)
If there is a way, what would be the best way to use this program to design 3 different projects and have it tell me how much plywood I need to order?
I am making a small bath vanity a large bathroom and a closet full of drawers and shelfs.
I am wondering if i can combine all of these projects to make one master list to order from.
I notice now that CP does not combine like plywood on one cabinet ? Am i doing something wrong ? (the cab body is 3/4 and the drawers are also 3/4 and though i can make this from one piece its showing 2 pieces of plywood in panel layout.) Thanks again in advance cheesy

The cabinets all need to be in the same job in order to get one master list.

If you have already created each job separately you could create another master job and use the import feature to put them all into the one job file.

The program lists each part type separately.

If you mean they don't show in the elevation or floor plan then you need to set the wall # for them to be placed on.
