Set the thickness slider to match your sheet before cutting, since every finger joint and divider slot is derived from it.

How To Use

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Set the size, dividers and handles you want, then download the SVG or the print-ready parts with no watermark and no export limits.

Set the thickness slider to your actual sheet thickness before exporting. The finger joints, the press-fit lid and every divider slot are all derived from it, so measure the sheet rather than trusting the label.

The dividers drop into slots cut in the floor so they stand upright and split the case into compartments. Adjust how many you want, and add carry handles if you plan to move the case around.

Yes. A commercial license is included, so you can sell cases made with the tool on Etsy, at craft fairs, or anywhere else. Attribution is appreciated but not required.
