It's kindda the tenth time I have to make a custom box for a project out of plywood with my CNC. The process I follow is
- Design the box in QCAD: This involves doing all the rotations and translations, and then the verifications so every finger falls into place.
- Pass the file to CAMbam or dxf2gcode and there configure all the machining stuff
- Finally cut it with my grbl-powered CNC and UGS.
Only when finish I realize that I forgot to add clearance between fingers.
For this task I created autobox, its open source code (https://github.com/debuti/autobox) and you are more than welcome to improve it. And I have a live app (http://autobx.herokuapp.com/), so you can create your boxes online, and maybe, who knows, use jscut.org to create your GCODE
Enjoy it

NOT AGAIN!
