About KerfMaker Woodworking Planner
Save a trip to the lumber store by planning your project with precision. KerfMaker makes sure you get just enough wood for your woodworking project.
Designed by a woodworker, KerfMaker has the tools you need to help keep your lumber costs low and your project together. With KerfMaker's project planner, you'll assemble a precise list of boards needed to get your project done – and make sure you only need to make one trip to the lumber yard or hardware store.
“...easy to learn, very useful. Sorts my parts quickly. Worth the purchase!”

"Though this has potential in the shop, it’s in project planning and shopping where this [app] on a mobile device really could shine.”
- Tim C., Popular Woodworking author
ORGANIZE AND PLAN
Pick your boards, plan your cuts and put it all in one place.
Use the parts list to keep track of everything you need to assemble.
Organize your projects with photos, and share existing projects with other woodworkers.
