Customer Review:
"I own a plastics company and we use PVC sheets that are 26" x 52". We cut thousands of sizes as we do a lot of custom work. These are thin sheets, .015 being most common, and we cut them on a Polar Cutter (paper cutter). So just testing this on one piece we do that we usually get 27 per sheet on, this program, showed me how we can get 28 per sheet by rotating the last row of pieces. That alone will save me approx $8500 a year. Just for that one piece! We do 2.5 million of this piece yearly. THANK YOU"

Fantastic money saver!!

I've used other similar programs , but this IS the best I've used. The ability to show other options for a better sheet yield is excellent. Only one flaw... On the iPhone App it doesn't show the number of pieces, you have to visually count. On the iPad, it clearly shows the pieces per sheet count. A small fix I'm sure. I own a plastics company and we use PVC sheets that are 26" x 52". We cut thousands of sizes as we do a lot of custom work. These are thin sheets, .015 being most common, and we cut them on a Polar Cutter (paper cutter).

That alone will save me approx $8500 a year. Just for that one piece! We do 2.5 million of this piece yearly. THANK YOU developer. Please consider: - calling the program a "sheet yield calculator" (I would have found it long ago) - adding the option to add a "gutter" or "trim" to each piece (we add .125" on one side and .25" on the other for trimming, more when we die cut. Acrylics uses a min of 1/8" more for the saw blade) - fixing the lack of a count number on the iPhone version. :-)


won't work
Yellshe

I was really excited about this app... it loaded then froze. now when I open it it's just a black screen :(


How is this,app supposed to work?
G-Bug

Ok, I downloaded the App, chose my paper size, chose the cut size, then nothing. I tapped the whole screen and nothing happened. I opened the information link and it told me to do what I already did. No other instructions or help. If anyone is interested in an app to design pages, don't waste your time on this one!


Useless
mattshu

Works fine as long as every sheet you need to cut is exactly the same. It's useless for me since I need to cut multiple sizes of sheets for my projects. Having it all be the same size makes the app just about useless since the calculations for 1 sheet size are so simple.


Great

Good


Stupid

This has to be the dumbest app!! Why would anyone with half a brain need an app to cut multiple things the same exact size??? Add multiple cut sizes and charge for the app. COMPLETELY WORTHLESS!!


Great app for cutting multiples of the same size!

I saw a recommendation for this app in a video and decided to try it out. It worked wonderfully! ?? This app is NOT for someone who wants to cut multiple pieces in different sizes. The images shown before you download the app clearly show all the pieces to be the same size. I make a lot of Christmas cards every year and this app will help me save card stock and time by providing the cutting layouts I’ll need to cut all my pieces. Thank you for working out the math for me! ?


Perfect!!!

This app is perfect for cutting multiples of same size from one sheet. It shows other layouts so you can be sure to get the most pieces from your sheet. AWESOME!!


ABSOLUTELY THE BEST!
2blessedmommie

I absolutely love this app! I am a very experienced card maker, 3D paper and home decor paper crafter. This app is WONDERFUL! So totally thankful for the different cut options to maximize paper and to see what scrap pieces you'll end up with! Perfect "helper" when mass producing projects or cards! Please realize that it formats a single measurement multiple times...not different measurements on your paper size.


Fantastic!

Well I’m not using this as it was initially intended. It serves me very well determining multiple print jobs. Love the visuals too!
