LumberCalc turns board sizes into board feet, linear feet and cost, so woodworkers, builders and DIYers know exactly how much lumber to buy.
• Enter thickness, width, length and quantity to get board feet per piece and in total
• See total linear footage for every board size
• Price the job from your cost per board foot
• Add a waste allowance and get the rounded-up piece count to buy
• Build a lumber list of mixed sizes with combined pieces, board feet and cost
• Plan your cuts: enter the pieces you need and get the fewest stock boards (8, 10, 12 or 16 ft, or an automatic mix), a cutting pattern for every board and the waste, saw kerf included
• Use project templates for a framed wall or floor joists to list studs, plates, headers, joists and the boards to buy, as an estimate to check against your local code
• Send a cut plan or template straight to your lumber list
• Share an estimate, lumber list or cut plan as text
• Tap quick presets for 2x4, 2x6, 2x8, 4x4 and 1x6
• Switch to metric (mm and m) for volume in cubic meters
• Save and name estimates to reopen later
