How does the tool calculate piece lengths?

The length is calculated by adding the artwork dimension, twice the frame width, and twice the miter allowance.

Can I compare different stock lengths?

Yes, you can use `compare_stock_efficiency` to determine which stock length results in the least amount of total waste.

What happens if a piece is too long for my stock?

If a piece exceeds the provided stock length, `validate_material_feasibility` will return a failure reason explaining the constraint.

This MCP server provides precision tools for picture frame production. It calculates exact piece lengths using miter geometry and optimizes material usage by nesting required pieces into available stock lengths. Use calculate_cut_list to generate a full production schedule, validate_material_feasibility to check if dimensions fit your stock, or compare_stock_efficiency to minimize waste between different stock options.
