About this welcome

The town/city is an approximate IP-based lookup using ipapi.co, with ipwho.is as a fallback. It can be inaccurate, especially with a VPN. No GPS permission is requested, and no account details, project data or photographs are sent. Only the town/city and region are cached in this browser tab for up to 30 minutes; if the lookup is blocked or unavailable, the general greeting remains.

Box creations for 2, 3, 4 & 5 mm wood. Live preview, kerf compensation, SVG & DXF export. All dimensions in millimetres.

1 Β· Box preset

2 Β· Material & laser

Typical 0.08–0.15. Bigger kerf = tighter joints. Set 0 for a loose, easy-glue fit.
Approximate β€” adjusted to fit each edge evenly.

3 Β· Box style

Sliding lid only β€” the grip lip sticking out of the box front.

4 Β· Compartments

Interlocking half-lap divider strips dropped into the box β€” no glue needed. Set both to 1 for none. Cell sizes shown in the summary.

  • SVG uses real mm units with 0.1 mm red hairlines β€” drop straight into LightBurn / RDWorks / K40 Whisperer.
  • DXF is R12 line entities (layer CUT) for CAD workflows.
  • Sliding lid: slide the lid in from the front until its shoulders click against the groove stops. A drop of wax makes it glide.
  • Labels below are preview-only and never exported.
