Methods and limitations
The hours calculator adds entered clock-time differences and selected excluded breaks; it does not calculate pay, legal overtime or daylight-saving adjustments. The wallpaper planner estimates full-height strips under its displayed matching and trim assumptions; confirm material orders with your supplier.
The soil planner scales your own measured batch; it does not prescribe a growing recipe. The dot generator produces marking guides, not embroidery designs or finished garment dimensions. Check your measurements and make a small test before using a result for a full project.
Printing and downloads
Downloaded sewing templates include a scale check: verify it with a ruler on your own printer before transferring marks to fabric. Hours reports and wallpaper cutting estimates are records of your entries and the stated methods, not certified timesheets or installation instructions.
