Gear-Driven Door Box - Laser Cutting Vector File

This listing is for a ready-to-cut digital vector template to create a compact plywood box with rotating gear-driven doors. Ideal for makers, woodworkers and small manufacturers with a laser cutter, CNC router or vinyl/plotter, this precisely drawn vector kit lets you produce a functional mechanical box with interlocking gear teeth that open and close the lid smoothly.

What you get
- Instant digital download: layered vector files in SVG, DXF, PDF, and AI formats
- Fully nested cutting layout and separated parts for efficient material use
- Clear assembly diagram and exploded view with part labels
- Design optimized for common material thicknesses (3mm / 1/8", 4mm / 5/32", 6mm / 1/4"); easily scalable
- Kerf-friendly joints and press-fit tabs; optional tolerances included for fine tuning

Compatible equipment and materials
- CO2 and diode laser cutters, CNC routers, scroll saws, and laser/plotter combo machines
- Plywood (birch, Baltic birch), MDF, acrylic, cardboard, and thin metals (check material compatibility)
- Best results on 3–6 mm plywood; adjust for kerf and machine power

Features and benefits
- Mechanical gear doors add a unique functional detail and tactile appeal
- No hardware required for basic assembly — precision interlocks hold the box together
- Fast production: one-off prototypes to small-batch runs
- Clean vector lines for smooth cutting and minimal post-processing
- Perfect for gift boxes, keepsakes, packaging prototypes, educational models and product displays

Notes before cutting
- Test cut one gear and tab on scrap material to confirm fit and kerf compensation
- Adjust scale and line widths in your software as needed; files provided with cut and score layers
- This is a digital product (not a finished box). Check store license terms for commercial use.
