Finding components pieces of a 3-D object

I've designed a 3D Solid which consists entirely of flat planes. I'd
like to break it up into those component planes, slap 'em on a single
flat plane, and dimension them so that I can fabricate the object.
There's gotta be some easy way to do this, right? On a previous
project I used endless ALIGN commands to get everything on a single
plane, and am hoping not to have to do that again.

Thank you for any help!

 

There are a few programs out there which will do this, but the
object must be converted to a polyface mesh first.

Then there is a very low end product which is really geared towards
paper folding, but it can import meshes. Pepakura
