Please note: The dovetail toolpaths created when using this gadget are locked to the layout position. i.e. it is not possible to move toolpaths to a new position once created.
Therefore, it is important to check the toolpath layout required will fit on the material available and the ‘machinable foot print’ of the CNC machine used for the project.
With this in mind, if you are using a smaller CNC machine it is possible to select individual sides of the box by ticking the section required. This enables the user to maximise the size of the box required by placing the toolpaths on individual layers and so maximizing the machinable footprint of the CNC.
Please note: This is also very convenient option if the lid of the box is to be made from thicker material.
