![]() I hope that this inkscape extension could be useful and will help you in your designs. If you want to build an actual box, you should duplicate the path with notches (Ctrl+D with inkscape), and it you be useful to invert it horizontaly if the two faces of your wood are not identical.The structure should be assembled clockwise, start a the line and go clockwise. There is also a small red line on the structure with notches which will tell you where to start the flex assembly.This will save a great time of laser cutting time. Note that flex structure is not drawn when not needed (when structure is not curve).When all fileds are completed, click on apply, and a structure with notches and flex will be drawn. ![]() This program will generate a text file under the inkscape extension directory which could be useful to help understanding its bahaviour in case of problem. In this case, this option will build several flex bands, ecah one shorter than the maximum size. Limit length of the flex band : if you want to build large structure, the length of the flex could be large and override the size of your laser cutting machine.Reducing the number of notches will lead to a box maybe more fragile, but muxh easier to assemble. This could be changed in order to reduce the number of notches by increasing the intervall between notches. Inteval between notches : by default, each notch is about two millimeter wide, and notches are separated by 2 millimeters interval as well. ![]()
