Great 1st post. Thanks to the link to the CutList program. I downloaded it, ran it with both the 1/2" and 3/4" lists and have been generally playing with different size sheets for about 20 minutes now. All of the parts can be cut using 2 - 4'x4'x1/2" panels and 2 - 4'x4'x3/4" panels (allowing for minimal mistakes). While I can't haul a 4'x8' panel in my XTerra, I can definitely fit in the four panels listed above. This will also help out with a bathroom shelf project I'm contemplating.
Thanks again for the lists and program link!

Thats a nice little app... wish I would have seen this before this weekend. Cut all my parts for my router Saturday. It's a modded JGRO design, all cut from one sheet with some scrap left, but I actually had to think. Since the supports in the original plans aren't true torsion boxes I opted not to do them.
If you decide to use this list, it does make it easier, but watch out for cutting bed top, base top, and the gantry front pieces. They came out wrong for me.
The bed top, and base top were both 1.0" short, and I think the gantry front piece was .500 short length wise.
Just double check with the actual prints before you start cutting, or be prepared to buy a second sheet of 3/4" MDF.
Maybe I did something wrong, but just double check the figures first.
What do the red pieces in the design mean? Are they excess parts or pieces that aren't correct? (I'm beginning my JGRO soon, but im having a friend cut the MDF so I'm trying to figure all this out for him.
Thanks for all this though, its the greatest resource ever.
