I built WoodworkCalc because I’m a woodworker myself. I got tired of doing the same math over and over on scrap paper, calculator apps, or random spreadsheets. Estimating board feet, adjusting for waste, figuring out material costs. It always felt slower than the actual building. I also noticed how often woodworkers online were asking the same questions: “How much lumber do I need?” “How do I calculate board feet?” “Am I overbuying materials?” The math wasn’t hard. It was just repetitive and easy to mess up. So instead of recalculating every time I started a project, I built tools to handle it properly. Clean inputs. Clear outputs. No clutter. WoodworkCalc came from the shop floor, not a brainstorm session in which has also helped friends and fellow woodworkers I’ve met in passing or at events.
