Could someone tell me what I need to set. I am trying to make boxes like the music box from the sample box from Epilog. Using 1/4 wood I would like to make a box 6x6x4in. deep Is there a way to do this? I tried dragging the sample but the fingers are way to long? I tried your box program Lee but there is not a top like the one I would need. I getting mixed up with the boxmaker and Lee's macro are these the same.And where did the cube come from? Thanks Robert

So...what kind of top do you need?Originally Posted by Robert Rosensteel
My 'macro' is a VBA program running directly under CorelDraw, while Boxmaker is a Java app running standalone. Vaguely similar controls, but no, not the same. I have no clue which came first, but mine was written in 2005 for Corel version 12.

"Design"? Possibly. "Intelligent"? Sure doesn't look like it from this angle.

Hi Lee all I want to do is make the sample(EPILOG) box bigger by changing it to a 6x6x4with the same lid. I have tried by dragging the sample layout but the finger joints change. I not a wood worker not getting the kerf and how to change the joint size,if this is possible. tHANKS rOBERT

Well that makes sense. I thought that only half the pieces were there. the two different widths through me off.
I will try one soon.
Thanks for the program and explanation.

I have not looked at the sample, but if you want it larger, you need to edit the nodes, To make it easier, you may need to turn your grid on in Corel and "snap to grid" and manually adjust each node to the size you want. Learning how to edit this will only increase your skill to work on countless other projects.
