About Us
A Brief History of Our Software
In 1986 R&R Drummond first released Plywood Planner for the Commodore 64. We
developed our second release, CASP'er, (Computer Aided Sheet Planner)for the
IBM-XT as the industry progressed toward the PC. With the arrival of Windows
3.1, we developed The ITEMIZER version 4, which supported a windowed, point-
and-click interface. The ITEMIZER version 5, was designed for the Windows 9x
operating systems. Version 6, added Power search routines that analyzed many
more layouts and Version 7 added the Part bin for rearrangements of the cut-
ting plans. Version 8 adds convenient use and a number of new features. Ver-
sion 9 has a user defined default Start file, Auto-save and Restore, Multiple
piece descriptions on drawings, 2-phase cutting plans and more.
Our current primary product is The ITEMIZER, which provides for manually re-
arranging the cutting plans after they are automatically generated. Also, we
developed Snap-It for hobbyists and the CutMizer Service for those who favor
our expertise to do the cutting plans for them.
Snap-It has been discontinued in favor of MINI-MIZER, which is a limited ver-
sion of The Itemizer and has more functionality than Snap-It.
With every new software release, we strive to improve the quality of our pro-
gram and efficiency of the layouts, while adding useful support features. We
regard customer feedback as a crucial part of the development process.
Our technical support is free and we strive to make it a same day service.
