@shindorf @MakerCase Glad you like it. I'd like to add some new features eventually.

@adriennegifford Cool project!

[MakerCase @MakerCase]

@gribblos @MakerCase The export options are in the same units that you select for the box design.

[MakerCase @MakerCase]

@gribblos @MakerCase Already supported - select mm from the "Units" dropdown box, located right above where you enter the case dimensions.

[MakerCase @MakerCase]

@gribblos @MakerCase No, but you can open the svg file in an image editor (or a text editor) and delete the finger joints on edges.

@MsWhitePhysics Click "Generate Laser Cutter Case Plans" to download an svg file. "Save Model" is for saving WIP to finish later.

New update to fix bugs with t-slot boxes. Bolts and nuts should fit better now.

@eengraving What browser/OS are you using? Chrome works best.

@RigidArtFablab Merci pour essayer mon app!

[MakerCase @MakerCase]

@hemalchevli Awesome! Glad it helped you. BTW - I'll probably be adding your feature request to my next update.

@mannkind @Ponoko You can change SVG line thickness/color in the "Vector Cutting" options in the blueprint window. http://t.co/rDRujiuVEm

@TomsThoughts Many hackerspaces have laser cutters that you can use for free: http://t.co/WhMi5sQHPR Also, @Ponoko offers laser cutting.

[MakerCase @MakerCase]

@TomsThoughts Yes - just double-click on any of the box faces, and a menu opens to let you add holes and engraved text.

New update today with a few bug fixes. Thanks to everyone that sent them in!

[MakerCase @MakerCase]

@FablabAIR Thanks for the tweet!

[MakerCase @MakerCase]

@hemalchevli If you double-click on any of the faces in the 3D box model, you can add circles, rectangles, and text too.
