Margin is the spacing around the entire box layout Padding is the spacing between sides of the box as they are laid out. Default value is conservative at 0.007in. But be careful: too much kerf and the sides will not fit together. Material removed, and make your box fit very snug. By adding a non-zero kerf you can compensate for the


Kerf is defined as the cut width: the amount of material that laser removes while cutting. The value you provide in this field helps the algorithm determine how many tabs per side to generate. We always choose an odd number of outward tabs per side, ie. One of the key differences of Makeabox and other tools, is that Makeabox goes out of its way to create a symmetric tab layout. The layout of the tabs on each side of the box contributes to the overall aesthetics of the final product. If you specify a value in this field, it will be used as a
