Solver Help

I have a problem that I think, hope, can be solved with solver, although i
havent used solver enough to know how. I get material in 12' lengths and
then cut those into even foot lengths from 3 feet to 12 feet. My quantity of
each length continually changes so i would like to set something up that
would determine how many 12' sticks i would need, to get for example: 5-3'
pieces, 2-4' pieces, 3-5' pieces and 1-10' piece. I think solver might be
able to figure that out for me, but i dont know for sure. Any thoughts or
examples out there? Thanks a lot, i really appreciate it.
