Finger Joint Software

[Dan Little]

Several months ago I found and downloaded a nice little software program that designed all six sides of any size box including the finger joints for all sides, top and bottom. Unfortuneately, my computer crashed and I lost the program. Does anyone know the location of this free software?

There are some threads on this. Look for box joints and boxes.

Here's one that has a link, look down toward the bottom on Lee's post http://www.sawmillcreek.org/showthread.php?129250-Boxes

I have not used it yet since I have yet to get a laser but Boxmaker (http://boxmaker.rahulbotics.com/) may work for you. It is free and requires no download. I have no affiliation what-so-ever with whoever makes Boxmaker - I'm curious to see if my first post gets me in trouble. ;-)

Welcome to SMC. I followed the links and they seem harmless enough, at least to me. And your suggestion answers the OP's question.

[Rich Harman]

There is another program similar to BoxMaker but more advanced that can make all different types of shapes, not just boxes. I spent a fair bit of time yesterday searching for it but came up empty handed. Wish I could remember what it is called. I can't believe I didn't bookmark it.

This (http://www.laserjumpstart.com/) is the one that you wanted to refer it to?

Yes, that is the one I was looking for! Amazing. I searched for "Boxit" in google but it does not come up.

[Dan Little]

THAT's the one! Perfect! Thanks so much. I now have the system backed up every day. Lessons learned!
