Looking for a plugin to break apart all components from wooden structure and place them side by side

Regarding the -1 scaling issue - I overcame this with timber components (valley, hips, jack rafters) by mirroring the components instead of -1 scale. -1 scale (or any scaling at all) was throwing off the estimating lists and eventually the export for some forms used by clients with CNC.

When you say ‘mirror’ do you mean make a copy of the component, then make it ‘unique’. Then open up the container and flip the raw geometry inside?

No, just use a mirror plugin.

I use the ABF plugin. It works well with scaled and inverted groups. Also, it has a good dxf export.

Late here, but this is sick. I make a decent amount of cnc and plywood yield and though things like cutlist and deepnest are awesome, neither can do exactly what is needed. This rules. Thank you.
