Field notes
The homepage lays out a five-stage flow—upload, place, shape, check, cut—and says the displayed examples were generated by the studio rather than mocked up. Its manufacturing review is unusually concrete: it flags floating pieces, thin wood, weak joints, and tiny specks, then describes nested sheets with cut and engraving layers, kerf compensation, and labels. The actual generator appears to require account creation; the public page explains the workflow and displays sample output.
