Calculator for cutting lengths of wood
 

Im looking for a calculator or a formula or something that will work
out the cheapest (least amount of lengths) way to cut lengths of 2.4m
wood

The wood comes in lengths of 2.4m and i have to cut various sizes i.e.

6 lengths at 1219mm
6 lengths at 737mm
12 lengths at 303mm
8 lengths at 481mm
+ a few more

The wood is quite expensive so obviously the least amount of scrap the
better.
Is there a web page or a good way to calculate it out?

TIA

Doug

Works for me, old bookmark so I checked it before posting and just
now. Not often a site

...but found this:

but the full version is $50 :((

Or less than =A330, if it does what it says it does that would seem a
very good spend of =A330. But I guess one would really need to be doing =

lots of projects using sheet materials rather than stock timber.
