Fabrica NoteLog

Your workshop is a laboratory, and every build deserves a proper record. Fabrica NoteLog is the offline companion for woodworkers, metalworkers, and makers who treat sawdust as evidence and every offcut as a future project. Everything lives on your device, with no accounts and nothing in the cloud. Begin each build as a logbook entry. Name it, set a status, add reference images, and watch a completion ring fill as you tick off a finish-line checklist. Keep a timestamped build log so the story of the piece is never lost. Then plan the cut. The visual cut optimizer lays your pieces onto a sheet, honors kerf and grain, and arranges them for the most yield with the least waste. Board feet are calculated as you type, in fractions or metric, whichever your hands think in. Save what is left. The offcut inventory turns scrap into opportunity. Rate each piece, tag where it lives, and search by species or size the moment a small build calls. A shopping list assembles itself from everything still marked to buy. Capture the setup that gave a clean cut. Record machine parameters, blade and bit wear, and the shop-built jigs you never want to rebuild from memory. A joinery reference covers more than twenty joints, while a proficiency timeline charts your skill climbing with every attempt. Watch the money too. A monthly spend chart, per-project budgets, a vendor log, and a clean CSV export keep the business side of making honest. These are field notes for the bench, written by the maker and kept by the maker. Plan every cut, save every scrap, remember every setup, and know every cost. Pick up your pencil. The next build is already waiting.
