End-Grain Cutting Board Grid Estimator

Estimate equal-size end-grain blocks, compare two grid orientations, and calculate rectangular stock footprint including the entered kerf between blocks.

Prefilled values are examples. Replace them with measurements and current costs for your project.

Inputs

Board and block sizes

Range: at least 0.01 in

Range: at least 0.01 in

Range: at least 0.01 in

Enter the thickness for this board; no thickness is preselected.

Range: at least 0.01 in

Range: at least 0.01 in

Range: at least 0 in

Enter the actual blade kerf used to separate adjacent blocks. This adds only internal cut width, not perimeter trimming.
