Pencil Box

The "Storage Box" tool creates outline drawings of a box and optionally the drawings of a lid for the box. This outline drawing is saved as an SVG file (Scalable Vector Graphics). That file can be fed to software which controls a laser-cutting machine. In that software you can either cut the box, or first add engraving items to your liking.

Boxes are not scalable, because the material width is part of the drawings. To create just any size, this "Storage Box" application is created and made available.

The linked pages below describe the various settings which define the box. Background information is provided, such as how are dimentions defined in a scalable vector file and why is this file type used. The info is split up into several pages, that should direct you to the info you are looking for. If anything is missing, please let me know.
