Sorry for your time loss :wave:
If I remember correctly (it is almost 3 years ago, can't believe it...) I used 2 full sheets and then some. But I had to re-do a few pieces that I screwed up and maybe with better nesting I probably could have got away with 2 sheets. But my previous CNC that I used to cut the parts had only a 25"x25" work envelope. I had to cut the over-sized blanks from the bamboo sheet with a jigsaw first and then tile the tool path for the longer parts. The table surface under the extrusions was still too big and cut with a circular saw then hand drilled.
