What's New in Box

1.2.4

March 15, 2025

Minor updates & bug fixes! NEW: Matching Lid gets its own template NEW: Frame height has new option to be relative to divider or box interior IMPROVED: Export option to "Group Part Edges" is now called "Combine Part Edges into single path" and now exports closed paths instead of grouped paths so you can apply a fill color and perform boolean operations in drawing programs. IMPROVED: Interior shapes like slots for divider ends are now grouped and don't become part of the part edge path. Miscellaneous minor bug fixes and improvements.

Must have

If you’ve a laser cutter, this is a must-have.
Well done, extremely useful and precise.
Please keep on developing it, with further parametric models!
(ok to pay for them)

I use it with an xTool M1 and a Glowforge Pro.

Need Laser Cut Boxes…

Look no further. This app has everything I need. The app has a great intuitive layout, simple to understand, every box I have made has been spot on!! I have sent 2 messages to the Developer and both times he has responded quickly. Amazing support!!! 10 out of 10, would recommend!

Can’t use my purchased features

I purchased the full app & was really enjoying it & all of a sudden, I can’t use my purchased features. I keep getting the pop up to purchase & then I “restore purchase” & it tells me that I’ve already purchased & then the cycle continues!

Doesn’t work after purchasing upgrade

I bought the upgrade, used it, and now I can’t use it without buying the upgrade again. Restore purchases doesn’t allow access even though it says “already purchased”. I’m in a loop of inaccessibility unless I pay again. Just go online and look for the free ones.

Just great

Great app, great support, quick response, thanks.
