What is it?

No name or address needed, and please leave personal details out of the note. Only I read reports, and each is deleted after 90 days. Cloudflare keeps the database's history for 30 days (Workers Paid; 7 on Free), so for that long after a deletion I could restore it; the privacy page has the details.

What it makes

Laser cut files (SVG in mm, or PDF at 1:1) for a stacked-ring planter pod that hangs on a wall or cabinet side.

How to use it

  1. Set the pod size, ring count and material thickness.
  2. Watch the stack preview update; thin rings look lighter, more rings look smoother.
  3. Export the fit-test coupon and cut it before the full job.
  4. Export the sheets with Save SVG or Save PDF (Sheet size for laser software; Letter or A4 to print a 1:1 paper template). Red is cut; blue is the ring labels, as text to score or engrave.

Build notes

  • This is the earlier design that led to the Wall planter box; both come from the same project.
  • Stack the rings in the order of their labels; the labels are scored, not cut.

Versions

The site runs the newest. Every earlier version stays downloadable, unchanged, for builds already under way.

  1. 1.1.1current

    The shared export bar (vector-export 1.0.1) takes every colour from the page: the pressed PDF page button no longer falls back to white text, and stays marked on a page that sets no colours. Nothing changes in how this tool looks or in any file it saves.

    Download 1.1.1 of Sliceform wall pod — laser planter generator

  2. 1.1.0

    Save SVG and Save PDF for all sheets at once, SVG and PDF on each sheet and for the fit coupon: PDF at 1:1, as one page per sheet or tiled on Letter or A4 with a scale check to print a template. The SVGs are unchanged.

  3. 1.0.1

    Spines no longer run into the side fins (capped with 0.3 mm clearance); ring slots run full width from the half-lap to the rim so every spine slides in; extreme spread and bulge settings clamp the spread with a warning, and spines cut down to stubs are flagged; the sheet list no longer pushes the page sideways on phones.
