12 Sierras

12 Sierras is a furniture estimator for one-person woodworking shops. Start from the overall size of a piece and get the parts, the lumber order, and cutting layouts planned against the boards you own and the machines you have. KNOW WHAT A PROJECT TAKES Pick a form (dining table, bed, side table, bookcase, cabinet or dresser), enter rough dimensions, and 12 Sierras works out the cut list. Every part shows the arithmetic it came from, what it's made of, and whether it's a glue-up. • Joinery as an allowance: say how much length your joints add, whether tenons or dados, or cut to the shoulder for Dominoes, biscuits, dowels and pocket screws. • Show wood, hidden wood and sheet goods priced separately, so a walnut dresser isn't priced as walnut all the way down to the drawer boxes. • Lumber charged the way you buy it: by the quarter (4/4, 8/4…) at nominal thickness, with your waste factor.…
