About the BoxHinge Duo generator
BoxHinge Duo splits the hinged lid into two. Each half has its own teeth through the side walls, so the compartments open independently — one for tools, one for screws.
What you can adjust
Outside or inside measurements, so the box fits the space — or the contents.
Material thickness from presets or a custom value, plus your machine's kerf.
Finger joints or flat, glued edges, with a target tooth width you can change.
A 3D preview you can spin, and a flat cutting plan with every panel named.
How it goes together
Both half lids pivot in holes in the side walls. The divider sits on the base plate tabs and supports the inner edges of the lids at the middle of the box.
Tips for a clean cut
Measure your sheet with calipers before you cut: material sold as 3 mm is often a little thicker or thinner, and that changes how tight the joints feel. Enter the kerf you measured on your own machine. If the first box is too tight or too loose, adjust the kerf in small steps and test again on scrap.
Frequently asked questions
Can I work in inches or centimeters?
Yes. Switch between mm, cm and inches at the top of the panel. Material thickness and kerf are always entered in millimeters.
Which file formats can I download?
SVG, PDF and DXF — all at 1:1 scale, in millimeters. AI files read the SVG or DXF straight into Illustrator.
What does the “Try other dimensions” button do?
It fills in a different set of measurements so you can see how the design changes before you enter your own.
