Wooden Gridfinity toolbox

[WillAdams (William Adams (Carbide 3D))]

A wooden box is one-half of the categorization of furniture into two types:

• platforms
• boxes

We did a video on a basic form:

which I looked into at:

3D Project | Design into 3D

and after exploring a number of different joinery options, my current technique of choice is a full-blind miter box joint:

This was previously discussed: Doing that specific sort of joint in Carbide Create requires using unsupported tooling: But if the joint is simplified, and one accepts voids: [screengrab] [screengrab] then one can cut parts: [WIN_20221115_21_46_08_Pro] which fit together quite well: [WIN_20221118_18_15_50_Pro] [WIN_20221118_18_17_28_Pro]

The bottom should probably be cut out with a larger tool, so as to save time, so: [image] [image] Apply [image] [image] [image] Lastly, the toolpaths will need to be arranged and ordered adjust for optimal material removal — in particular, the small V to full depth toolpath should be cut last and may have its Start Depth set to the bottom of the joinery depth toolpath. [image] To adjust the draw dimensions, it is a simple matter of aligning a set of nodes on the grid: [image] T…

though I do have a fondness for the flexibility of choosing which side material will be present in for what I call a quarter-blind miter box joint:

which made possible an integrated hinge:

which probably gets joinery as far as-is possible in the current Carbide Create (I would love to either be proven wrong, or for Carbide Create to gain the last toolpath which would make a joint which I have envisioned, but been unable to reasonably implement in CAM).
