Examples
Laser cut in TruFlat® Cherry plywood. The egg-crate dividers slot together and drop into the tray to make a tidy grid of compartments.
Material used:
Set the thickness slider to match your sheet before cutting, since every slot and finger joint is derived from it.
How To Use
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Set the grid, size and depth you want, then download the SVG or the print-ready parts with no watermark and no export limits.
The dividers use cross-lap notches so the horizontal and vertical strips slot into each other and drop into the tray as a rigid grid, no glue required. Choose how many columns and rows you want to size each compartment.
Set the thickness slider to your actual sheet thickness before exporting, because every cross-lap notch is derived from it. Measure the sheet rather than trusting the label so the dividers lock together with a clean press fit.
Yes. A commercial license is included, so you can sell trays made with the tool on Etsy, at craft fairs, or anywhere else. Attribution is appreciated but not required.
