How does the tool account for surfboard shapes?

The tool uses a nesting efficiency factor of 0.85, which assumes boards can overlap or nest by 15% due to their shape.

Can I check if a single large surfboard fits?

Yes, you can use the `validate_trunk_capacity` tool to check if a single board fits in your trunk.

What inputs are required for the feasibility check?

You need to provide the total vehicle trunk length in centimeters and an array of the lengths of each surfboard in centimeters.

This MCP server provides precise 1D bin packing calculations for surfboards. By accounting for the natural nesting and overlapping of surfboard shapes, it determines if a specific set of boards can fit within a vehicle's trunk length. Use calculate_packing_feasibility to check a full set of boards, get_nesting_config to see the efficiency factor, or validate_trunk_capacity to check a single large board.
