But at this point, the approach to generating such a list has been somewhat haphazard, consisting of those items that have jumped out at you as you work through the design. What’s needed now is a logical take-off method that allows you to avoid wasting money by buying too much stock, or wasting time by not buying enough, and having to go back and forth to the lumberyard and hardware stores at inopportune moments. Trim take-offs As the name implies, a take-off is taken off the drawings. For trimwork, I organize my list in two categories—standing trim and running trim.
Similarly, I don’t subtract for windows and doors, unless there is a large bank of windows or an extrawide door opening. And I add 10% to 15% extra onto solid-wood stock to allow for waste from defects, miscuts, and miters. For MDF materials, which generally have very few defects, I only need to add 5% to 10% extra. Standing trim refers to all of the window and door casings and sometimes the wainscoting materials. It’s typically ordered in specific lengths and sold in lengths in multiples of 2 ft.
For example, I might draw an arrow to a corner of the room on my drawing and note which way the corner is out of square or how much the wall is out of plumb. That way, I start to compile a record of actual conditions, which I can carry with me to the saw, helping me remember which way to compensate when I cut the baseboard to fit in that out-of-square corner. Scaling Drawings Scale refers to both the ruler and the proportions used by carpenters and architects to create measured drawings. As proportions, a scale expresses a precise relationship between a design drawn on paper and a full-size object.
