Tutorials: Kerfwise
Learn Kerfwise step by step.
- Your first cabinet in 5 minutesOpen Kerfwise, start from the base-cabinet template, change its size and doors, and get a cut list, sheet layout and drawings — no account needed.Beginner 5 min
- Plan a kitchen with walls, appliances and worktopsDraw the room, add windows and doors, place appliances and cabinet runs that snap to the walls, and let Kerfwise generate worktops with sink and hob cut-outs.Beginner 15 min
- Joinery, back panels and cut sizes explainedHow Kerfwise turns a cabinet size into part sizes — plinths, dados, rabbets, grooved backs, drawers, doors, hinges and edge banding — with worked numbers you can check.Intermediate 12 min
- Sheet nesting, grain and offcutsGet the most out of every sheet — choose guillotine or MaxRects, set kerf and trim, lock the grain, read the yield, reuse offcuts and export DXF for your saw or CNC.Intermediate 10 min
- Costs, hardware and production drawingsTurn a design into a quote and a workshop pack — material and banding prices, hardware list, labour minutes, markup and tax, part drawings with drilling and a printable PDF.Intermediate 10 min
- Import a CSV parts list and add loose partsBring parts from a spreadsheet or another program into Kerfwise, mix them with designed cabinets, and nest everything together.Intermediate 8 min
- Automate Kerfwise with the API and MCPCall the Kerfwise engine from scripts and AI agents — cabinet builder, cut list, sheet nesting and CNC G-code as JSON API and MCP tools, with real request and response examples.Advanced 15 min
- Corner cabinets and worktop jointsBuild an L-kitchen with a diagonal corner cabinet, an L-shaped corner with bi-fold doors, an angled end and a quarter-round shelf — and choose butt, mitred or one-piece L worktops.Intermediate 12 min
- CNC G-code exportTurn nested sheets into router G-code for GRBL, LinuxCNC or Fanuc-style controls — tool library, radius compensation, tabs, drilling cycles, cut order, simulation, machining time and DXF.Advanced 15 min
