Here is the original Excel pricing worksheet (with a few updates and modifications) that I posted a few years back. It has made the rounds through other forums and has been modified several times by other users. Feel free to use it and to modify it to suit your needs.

when looking at your sheet you have a height and you have a width. In one example I seen there was a height number of 14.15 and they are using 14 ga material. I was wondering if you height is what we refer to as length? And is this worksheet figured as a per piece item?

Yes, the height would be length. I think when I made the spreadsheet I was looking at the computer screen an wrote it as height and width instead of length and width and never thought to change it, lol. The worksheet can be per piece or for a whole group of nested parts depending on the information you input.

A little off topic, but, Its amazing what we were paying for sheets of metal back when this spreadsheet was created.
The days of cheap metal are over for the foreseeable future. A sheet of 1/4" plate was going for $5 per sq ft then. It is amazing to think what we were paying then... We are at around $18 per sq ft and up nowadays for the same sheet of 1/4" plate.

Yeah .... steel prices are out of sight now, along with lumber. Who could have guessed that a simple 2x4 stud would cost $10.00 in 2021?

Well, as with everything in Capitalism, the price is passed along to the consumer.

Doug - I agree! Steel price have really "gone thru the roof". I am willing to absorb some of it, but I pass a portion of the increase along to my customers by raising my prices. I buy more round tubing and flat stock, but the increase per lb. is pretty much the same regardless.

I assume it would import, but I am not an EXCEL wizard. I suggest you download it, and try it!
