Just an FYI. A couple of the links I had for making finger joint boxes disappeared or just aren't working. Searched high and low to find another. Came across this one and that probably worked the best for me as my boxes are longer than 12 inches. Looks like he will add features as time goes on. wwwDOTmakeaboxDOTio.

I like the box designer but can't figure out how to register so you can download a box

It looks like if you design your box, then click the 'fingerbox (free!)' link at the bottom , you'll get a new window w/ the drawing and a button that will let you 'download as SVG'

I tried that all you get is a small pre designed box. I think to get full use of the website you have to pay.

Hmmm on the freebox page I can change settings and the box design changes. I'm using Chrome as the browser and it seems to work. It looks like the page may be using javascript, so maybe it behaves different in other browsers. I guess I usually use the 'boxmaker' link.

In the same vein, is there a generator for creating jigsaw puzzle cuts?

I'm pretty sure Inkscape has a jigsaw extension available.

Yes, I have one, but since it's a bit OT, I've created a separate thread.
