    Default Laser Cut Living Hinge

    I would love the program that cuts the Living Hinge https://www.epiloglaser.com.au/how-i...wood-hinge.htm , all of my searches goes to Epilog. Could members advise if there are other suppliers/programs available?
    Thanks

    I've seen them called lattice hinges - searching on that might help maybe.

    this guy seems to be using adobe illustrator to generate the patterns: Curved laser bent wood

    It's just straight lines in a staggered pattern, surely it can't be that hard to do it yourself?

    I believe Inkscape has a plugin for the living hinge. Haven't tried it.
