How many pieces from one board?

This is the first sum in every session. Pick a board and a piece length. Every cut also eats the width of the saw blade, called the kerf.

The sum1800 ÷ (275 + 3)= 6.47, round down to 6
Left over132 mm1800 − 6 × 278
Board used92%pieces ÷ board × 100

275 mm is the height of the nest box front and back, a good place to start.
