Intro
This macro was created to generate cut lists for framing lumber for the SH7 Build Book in FreeCAD 0.16. In order for the macro to function properly, the module must be "Downgraded" using the "Downgrade" functionality in the Draft workbench and broken down into its most basic parts. When this macro is executed, a sheet is generated within the FreeCAD file that contains the name of the part and other parts that share its dimensions, the type of lumber/plywood/osb, the length/dimensions of cuts needed, and the quantity of cuts. Also, both a .CSV and .HTML files are generated into the same folder where the .fcstd file is stored and contain the relevant data.
