    1) Height with Recuts (unticked option)

    The required height of raw material taking into account the size of the saw blade.

    Finished - Carcass Height minus Top Gap plus Bottom Gap

    Cut - Finished Height minus (Top  & Bottom Edging) * Quantity of fronts minus (Gaps between fronts plus Saw Blade thickness) * Quantity of gaps [i.e. Quantity of fronts less one]

    2) Height without Recuts (ticked option)

    The height of raw material without taking into account the saw blade.

    Finished - Carcass Height minus Top Gap + Bottom Gap
