Finger joints calculated for you
Finger joints around the box adjust to the real thickness and fit value, with laser kerf allowance, or dog-bone and T-bone corner relief for CNC bits
boxes and trays
Design gift boxes and organizer trays as cut files
Prakobd designs gift boxes with six finger-jointed sides, divided trays, pen holders, desk organizer trays and storage crates on the web. Choose from 9 examples in the box and tray category, enter the outside or inside size and the measured material thickness, and you get a 3D design and SVG and DXF files for laser or CNC with kerf and joint fit already allowed for. Designing is free; you pay credits when you download production files
What do I get?
Divide spaces with cross-notched panels
Open-top boxes and trays divided into columns × rows, with divider panels notched to cross each other, for example a 3 × 2 tray for a drawer or a 2 × 2 pen holder.
Lids, cutouts and stencils
A closed 6-sided box: cut the lid separately afterwards or make a slip-on lid. Add handle cut-outs, holes, or a logo and stencil pattern from an SVG file onto the panels.
Many materials supported
Laser jobs use acrylic, thin wood, PP board, foam board or paper. CNC jobs use plywood, MDF or PVC foam board. Enter the real thickness and save it as a profile to reuse.
Workflow
- Choose a box type
Choose an example such as a gift box, a 6-compartment divided tray or a storage crate, or start from the closed 6-sided box and open-top box / tray templates.
- Enter dimensions and material
Choose whether you enter the outside size or the inside opening, then enter the measured thickness, the kerf or the bit size, and the fit.
- Arrange openings and joints
Set the number of divider slots, choose finger joints, tabs or butt joints, then rotate and explode the parts in the 3D view.
- Cut the fit test kit, then download the files
Cut the fit test kit to find the setting that fits, then download the production pack or per-sheet files to cut
Production file cost from real examples
Designing, viewing in 3D and viewing the nesting are free. You pay credits when you download the production file pack (ZIP), which is charged by the number of sheets and parts in the job.

Who it's for
- Laser shops that make gift boxes, giveaway items and product boxes
- Woodworkers and makers who want finger-joint boxes that fit their sizes exactly
- Shops that make divided trays or organizer boxes to fit a customer's drawers
- Standard folding die-cut paper boxes with tuck flaps have no template yet. A dedicated box die-cut program suits them better.
Frequently asked questions
What does the production file cost for boxes and trays?
Design for free. You pay credits when you download the production file pack (ZIP), charged by the number of sheets and parts in the job. Example: 4-compartment pen holder 62 credits (≈ 124 THB) · gift box 59 credits (≈ 118 THB) · Storage crate 59 credits (≈ 118 THB)
The finger-joint box comes out too tight or too loose. How do I fix it?
Measure the real thickness and enter it in the material step, then adjust the fit value: a positive value loosens it and a negative value tightens it, in steps of 0.1–0.2 mm. Or cut the fit test kit first. For laser work, don't compensate for kerf again in the machine
Can I enter the box's inside dimensions?
Yes. In the size step you choose whether to enter outside size or inner bay size, and the program calculates the parts accordingly. Good for boxes that must hold items of an exact size
Can I add a logo or stencil pattern to the box?
Yes. Add cutouts, holes and grooves in the extras step, or bring in an SVG shape to cut as a pattern, or draw in Illustrator / CorelDRAW and send it in with the Prakobd Link plugin
Can I sell products made from the files?
Yes. The designs and files you create are yours, and you can use them for production or sale. Always check the sizes and do a test cut before real production
