I’ve been using this extension for quite a while and it’s fantastic, I cut every panel from the cut list diagram and the units, drawers etc go together perfectly
I just finished cutting out all the cabinets for my kitchen. It was definitely stressful at first "trusting" the printout. But it all worked. It looks like I had only made one mistake in the model. But that was my fault. I originally had 1/4" back panels, but later decided against it, but forget to readjust one of my inner divider panels so the depth ended up being incorrect. Luckily it was just one cabinet.
This extension is awesome. I can’t believe it is made available for free. Definitely support the devs by donating if you can! Thank you for the tutorial. Cheers 👍😎🇦🇺
I had 2 SketchUp needs recently (exploded view and cut-list) and this extension took care of both. I am very happy to have found it and will chip in some support! Merci Boris! And thank you Matt for this very video. Even at its short length, it helped guide me through a couple of issues I was misunderstanding. Cheers, Richard_
Great video Matt. Saw this one about 4 years ago but it was no where near this level of development then. Glad you put this one on display. Have sent a link to various people I know who might need this.
Thanks, Matt. This is good stuff to know. Of course I had planned to do other things this weekend before I found this new SketchUp plugin to play with.
Brilliant, Matt. I’ve been looking for a replacement to my old cut-list generator (itemiser), the company folded years back and I managed to accidentally delete from my system. Cheers for bringing this extension to my attention bud.
It's free for SketchUp Pro, which runs $300/yr. I can already create a full model in the free version of SketchUp. This looks like an awesome plugin and would save me some time, but its practical cost to me is $300/yr (which is pretty steep for a hobbyist) - unless there's some way to use it on the free version of SketchUp?
Wow. My mind is blown. I'm a design engineer, and have had access to various CAD software since college. Currently I'm on Inventor, and I model up my projects before making them... but I have to change various iProperties of each component, usually including the size in their name so that when i create a BOM i can figure up how much of a sheet / board each component will use. i.e. if I have 4 5ft boards, 8 2ft boards, then I have to think in my head "OK, I can get 1 long board, and 1 short board out of an 8ft 2x4 so 4 of those will take care of all long boards, and leave me with 4 short boards, which is 1 more 8 foot 2x4.... so I need 5 2x4s. Easy on something that simple, but gets time consuming and prone to error pretty quickly. Outside of learning how to model in SketchUp (which looks pretty intuitive and wouldn't take long), this is so much easier and convenient to create you BOM. Then you throw the actual cut list on top of that? This is amazing. How have I never heard of this software until like a few weeks ago? I've designed a fence for about 1/2 anchor, numerous shelves, a few work benches, etc. Obviously Inventor is more powerful and suited to a different level of design... and maybe there are plugins/extensions for it to make it better suited to wood, and especially cut sheets... but thats my employers software and plugins, etc are handled by them. I'm 100% getting this for my personal set up and projects. Thank you for the explanation!
Great video as always!!!! And this looks like an amazing plugin. Would this work to get a list of required amounts of lumber and costs for wall framing? And I suppose if you added a 'pink' material for insulation, it would work for that as well???
OK, BUT TWO OF YOUR PARTS, SIDE WALLS HAVE THIS CUT AT THE BOTTOM FOR SKIRITNG SO ITS NOT A PURE RECTANGLE... WHY ON DIAGRAM CUTLIST SHOWS THIS PARTS AS RECTANGLE? JUST WITH DIAGRAM YOU DONT KNOW THIS LITTLE CUT DIMENSION AT THE BOTTOM. IS THIS ERROR IN THE PLUGIN OR SOMETHING? HOW TO FIX IT? THANKS
Great Video! thank you for posting. I am also looking for a good rendering plugin that will make my furniture and cabinets more real looking. Do you have a video for one already, or do you have a recommendation for a plug in that is worth looking into (both free and paid preferably)?
I recommend Enscape. You do have to pay for it but it’s PHENOMENAL. You have a full library of props and assets so you can make your projects come to life
I still prefer CutList Bridge LX, this one is ok but problem is with sketchup as it allow to assign texture to group and face at the same time. With edge-banding is usually problem as well , I wish there will be global library of the materials not every time you will need to assign material as edge or sheet good. I need to check this new version now maybe it will be more what I'm looking for. We are using sketchup in our workshop every-single day to make plans and cutlist for all our kitchen and wardrobe orders. Thanks for the video
you can save material details by exporting them to C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Roaming\SketchUp\SketchUp 2022\SketchUp\Materials\OpenCutList. so that when you like using it again, you dont have to edit new materials again...
I've been using SketchUp Make together with an older version of Cabwriter to export the material list to Cutlist Plus FX. This combination worked for me for the past 10+ years to build cupboards and even mild steel projects.
Hi, Having problems putting crown molding in parts list. When I generate Parts List the molding comes up with "Cross section undefined". Is there a way to list different crown molding in OpenCutList?
I'm just starting with this extension and when I go to the parts section of OCL there's no option option to create the cutting diagram. Wondering if anyone else has this issue and a solution or if I'm perhaps missing something in my process. Thank you!
What if you have multiple finishes for a specific piece? like when you have a laminated stipple white finish on the exterior part of the board then you have a colored one on the inside?
Even though I'm using SU 2017 the extension works great. I'm wondering how I can do assembly drawings to show the workflow of building a project. If I copy parts from the model to show assembly scenes it screws up the cutlist. So I must make a scene and hide the parts not applicable to the current assembly scene. Sometimes like with table legs it would be nice to rotate the view so that a leg appears horizontal for printing rather than vertical. I've tried the orbit tool, changing the axis and standard views but nothing I try can make that vertical leg appear horizontal. Any suggestions?
I'm missing one feature in this extension - the ability to drag and move the position of pieces in the final cutting diagram. Sometimes there's stores where they requiere the smaller pieces to be arranged near the borders or so, and usually it would be a mere matter of selecting a group and moving it to an edge. Instead, I've had to hand-draw my custom cutting diagram based on the one suggested by OpenCutList but with this slight modifications. If anyone can give a hint about this, I'd apapreciate it!
How does OpenCutList know the quantity of each repeated piece? For example, "face frame rail" quantity 3. How did you let OpenCutList know that your cabinet has three of these identical pieces?
Is there a way to create a cut list for offcuts? i.e. I have 3 sheets of different sizes in 18mm mdf, and I want a cutlist for all my 18mm components spread over the 3 sheets.
For the life of me I can't figure out how to change the amount trimmed on a sheet of plywood. Seems to be set at 1/2" and I can't find where to change that. Brand new to the extension. If anyone can help me out I would appreciate it!!
so it generates a cut list and a cutting diagram: is the cutting diagram to be used somehow as a dxf file for CNC, since it has obviously has the ability to nest the parts I might need... or am I looking at another extension for this?
Last time I used this extension, it used the bounding box of parts for nesting, so everything is squared off. It didn't have a CAD export either. But I thought it was on the horizon so not sure if this has been incorporated at this point.
Anyone work out a way to reduce the font size of the the text on the cutting diagram? This can done for labels, but not, it seems, for the Cutting Diagram, which is frustrating as this is the most likely diagram to be printed out for the workshop. And probably on A4, or A3 at best, so if there a are a number of smaller pieces the Part ID info and Dims are just way too big to fit within the small parts. I've tried Full Width Display and normal, and neither achieve what you're able to do within the Labels dialogue.
It only makes cuts. But do not drill. There are programs that automatically tell you where the hole should be, it calculates automatically. But here it's just a drawing.

What would you recommend to get a cut list from SketchUp Go?
Would this work for sketchup on Ipad?

Apply "Sheet good" material on your parts.
Thank you for the tip, it looks amazing! Is there an option to switch to metric units? :-)
Yes OpenCutList uses Sketchup configured unit.
IS THIS PULG-IN USED FOR CNC CUTTING ?
Great tutorial. Is it possible to have a sheet good different material on inside and outside face
Yes. Apply veneers.
I do not have the export option in the cutting diagram section, will this add-on come? Will there be only cvs or xml in the export section?
can the details from this plugin also be sent to Layout to format them as a submittal?

sir can you please share how to do cut list
Hi! great tutorial! How can I use Cutlist with a curved component??
Unfortunately it only view part as a square box.
GREAT !! BIG PROBLEM SOLVED - THANKS MATE
Do you know if this can be used with SketchUp GO?
How does OpenCutList know the quantity of each repeated piece? For example, "face frame rail" quantity 3. How did you let OpenCutList know that your cabinet has three of these identical pieces?
Okay Good Extension but can i export it to another program like opticut ?
Yes
It worked. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
With some tweeking of the plugin's *.rb files it is possible to use custom width and length of sheets!
Why tweaking *.rb files ? Sheet length and width are natively customizable in material properties.
Is there a way to create a cut list for offcuts? i.e. I have 3 sheets of different sizes in 18mm mdf, and I want a cutlist for all my 18mm components spread over the 3 sheets.
Yes, you can fill the "Panel Offcuts" field with those sizes.
THANK YOUUUU IT WORKED!!!!
Does this extension work with the free version?
Does this plugin also work with metric measuring system?
Yes OpenCutList uses Sketchup configured unit.
but why, has the entire plugin been deconfigured? my songs and boards are all gone after the last update
For the life of me I can't figure out how to change the amount trimmed on a sheet of plywood. Seems to be set at 1/2" and I can't find where to change that. Brand new to the extension. If anyone can help me out I would appreciate it!!

Interesting, that seems like a logical next step or workflow consideration.
OK, was the cutting diagram in vector format or otherwise?@@Mastersketchup
Since 6.0, it can export cutting diagrams and parts shapes to SVG or DXF.
How do you change the grain orientation of the material used for the components? Or do you have a video that covers that?
You can change the grain direction by changing the part component internal axes. Red axis is grain direction.
Anyone work out a way to reduce the font size of the the text on the cutting diagram? This can done for labels, but not, it seems, for the Cutting Diagram, which is frustrating as this is the most likely diagram to be printed out for the workshop. And probably on A4, or A3 at best, so if there a are a number of smaller pieces the Part ID info and Dims are just way too big to fit within the small parts. I've tried Full Width Display and normal, and neither achieve what you're able to do within the Labels dialogue.
Does OpenCutlist work with Sketchup Free online version?
No extensions can work with SketchUp free.
Thanks, buddy...you really are a hacker
it's great man
Does it provide for metric measurements
yes it does
how can we draw 1 unit but actually making 10 unit? can't see the option for multiple.
no such option. A workaround is to multify units within the file and make OCL work with them at once
video utile e informativo bro
link for download please
Thanks for the video, I which you make part 2
Why are you using ver. 3 ?
does it work with Mac?
Yes
thanks alot for share
thanks bro

Интересно. Спасибо
It only makes cuts. But do not drill.
There are programs that automatically tell you where the hole should be, it calculates automatically. But here it's just a drawing.
