Good wood.
One more build.
Find something worth making with the wood you already own.
Start with a project, or start with your scrap pile.
A photo stand. A keepsake. A reason to keep it.
Bring your scrap pile to ChatGPT
Use ChatGPT for photos and conversation. Wooden Grove saves your measured wood and checks which projects fit. No separate API key or API credits are needed for this plugin workflow; your ChatGPT plan’s limits apply.
- Open your personal plugins and connect Wooden Grove. It may still be listed as CutBench. Use the same account as this workshop.
- Start a ChatGPT chat, select the plugin with @, and attach your photo in that chat. Lay pieces separately beside a ruler and photograph from above.
- Confirm each piece’s measured length, width, and thickness before saving. Species can stay Unknown. ChatGPT then checks your saved wood against the starter projects.
Already know what to build? Describe the project in ChatGPT. Wooden Grove can check a supplied finished part list against your wood. Its five starter designs have saved plans; custom designs still need verified geometry and joinery. Photos uploaded here are not automatically sent to your ChatGPT conversation.
Your builds
What would you like to make?
Five starter designs. See what you have, what is missing, and how to build it.
Start with your scrap pile.
Photograph separated pieces beside a ruler, then review the measurements.
Your scrap pile
Add individual pieces or catalog several from one photo. Measure usable length along the grain, width, and thickness. Confirm the species if you know it.
There are measured offcuts from the earlier version in this browser. Add their missing measurements to move them into your account catalog. Moving a piece removes it from the older length-only library; wood used by an advanced project must be released first.

Ready to make the most of your material.
Your plan, board by board.
How this plan works
Cut in the listed order. Measure each finished piece from the current stock end. The diagram shows material lengths; verify your stock and blade width before cutting.
Measured offcuts
Record actual remainders on finished boards below the cutting diagrams, or add a measured offcut here. Reuse matches the material and cross section exactly. Stock leaves this library when you record its board as finished.
