Laser Box AutoLISP Code


This code can be used to generate a laser box with dove-tail edges.  It includes a kerf feature and should be used as in AutoCAD.  You need to know how to use AutoLISP macros to use this.

Sorry this is fairly long and I didn't put in many comments so hopefully you can make sense of it.  If not comment and I will explain further.

The main routine is jsb.  At the AutoCAD command line you would type:

(jsb 2.0 3.0 4.0 2 3 4 0.125 0.01)

to generate a box 2"x3"x4" with 2 tabs, 3 tabs, and 4 tabs respectively for 1/8" wood with a laser width (kerf) of 1/100th of an inch.  Don't forget to turn off object snap (f3) (and other snaps).  You should get something like the following:
