Custom Table: Part Bounds - now with combine to get part count with same dimensions

Hi,

Preparing a woodworking project, where I will have several parts with the same dimensions, i wanted the possebility to get a list of all unique parts and how many are there of each..
Thankfully there existed already the Part bounds custom table.

I have added a combine feature, which will calculate a part count for unique part.

Check it out: https://cad.onshape.com/documents/5dfd646d3365c92011a9a1db/w/f8d97304c7fab41440d2aa74/e/5c897ad809b0f9e2717822df
The author of the original part bounds table is welcome to add my code.

    There are a few issues as you can see
    1- Small issue in the code


    2-Parts with different holes


    3-Parts with cuts, fillets and chamfers


    You can fix 1 easily

    2 and 3 need to implement new options to combine or not parts:
    - You can check the mass, but this only fix some cases (there are 2 different Parts in picture 2 with the same hole, so the mass is the same but the holes are in different positions)
    To avoid this last issue you can check the Mass moments of inertia of the parts instead of their mass
    Un saludo,
