Cut list templates

Plywood Cut List Templates

Start from a real project instead of a blank sheet. These 120 templates provide adjustable plywood parts, quantities, kerf guidance, and sheet-layout links for cabinets, storage, furniture, shop fixtures, outdoor builds, and small projects.

Choose a project, then make the cut list yours

Every template starts with a project-specific parts list rather than a generic worksheet. Choose a kitchen cabinet cut list, bookcase cut list, workbench cut list, or another build close to yours; then update the dimensions, material thickness, and hardware allowances before cutting.

  • Parts and quantities for a practical plywood starting point.
  • Kerf and layout guidance to check sheet use before buying material.
  • Calculator links to test your revised layout with your actual sheet size.

How to use a cut list template

A template is a starting point, not a fixed answer. Open the project closest to your build, adjust the dimensions to match your space and materials, then confirm the parts physically fit on a sheet. Use the plywood cut calculator with your actual saw kerf, or the cut list calculator for board-cut parts. Save a working version in the CutList app when you want to compare revisions.

Cut less, waste less

Most plywood waste is decided before the first cut, when parts are grouped poorly or a sheet count is guessed. Starting with an adjustable project template gives you a clear set of parts, then the layout calculator shows whether the actual sheet size and kerf will work.
