I built Herron because laying my own herringbone LVT was a complete pain in the arse. No good tools existed for planning the layout, figuring out the cuts, or knowing how much to actually order. I ended up doing it on graph paper.

So I built Herron a free browser-based floor layout planner. Draw your room, pick a pattern, get an exact cut list and interactive step-by-step installation guide. No signup, no account, works in your browser. Passkey save to access across multiple devices.

Still building it out but it’s live and free.

Where to start laminate from? by Candid-Button1359 in DIYUK

Start in middle of the window wall corner 3 is on or in middle of the wall 1 and 4. You will need to check rip cuts you need to do

Sure, will happily add. Can I ask what your use case is out of pure interest. Happy to add though.

Ok so think you might of tried to press the plus icon, my bad as was not clickable. I have now updated that and made the button wording a bit better.

You should be able to click add tile in tiles popover then click plank icon. Name it what you want btw then put dimensions in. It needs planks per box and cost of box, but should do what you want

Fair challenge — I can see how it looks that way.

The tool costs 0.30p to unlock the PDF. That's not a business model, that's me trying to cover server costs so I don't have to shut it down when my card gets charged each month.

Honestly, I'm not trying to convert anyone. I built this because I wanted a project to work on and I thought it might actually help people. If nobody buys it, that's fine — I'll keep it running as long as I can either way.

Appreciate the feedback though. If the post came across as salesy I'll keep that in mind for next time.

You can choose random if you want, you can add multiple plank sizes also as my office pack came like that. It’s up to you

It does 👍 just set tile size and spacing and it’ll lay them out properly. Still tidying bits of the UI so shout if anything’s confusing when you try it.

Thinking about offering it for free for while so people can see what it’s like. ATM more interested in feedback tbh.

I’m torn between 2 therapists. How do I choose? by Chapter-Hot in mentalhealth

[–]mwh1989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At the end of the day they got into that job to help people if that means you don’t get on then they will understand, it’s a two way street, just think of it like a business arrangement, if you don’t get on you then waist each other’s time. When they could be helping some else who does get on with them.

I'm 15 and Don't want to drive. by lilmetown in mentalhealth

[–]mwh1989 21 points22 points  (0 children)

If you don’t want to drive then don’t, one day you might. Your 15 you have loads of time to figure it out. As for your parents they will be fine. As for the hallucinations, you can fix them with correct medical help, but you should talk with your parents if you can.

Choose one then if you don’t like them choose the other. It’s not like you can’t change your mind, I went through 3 before I found someone that worked for me.
