About
CutGen offers a curated collection of custom SVG design generators tailored specifically for laser cutters but can easily be adapted for use with CNC or other tools.
These intuitive and time-saving generators run seamlessly in modern desktop browsers, including Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Safari.
Why CutGen?
CutGen is a labor of love that began a few years ago. I had a creative itch that existing SVG generators just couldn’t scratch, so I decided to build my own.
Don’t get me wrong—free online generators are fantastic, but their design workflows never quite clicked for me. Filling out a long form of parameters only to see a static 2D layout left me wanting more. As a visual person, I found it hard to fully picture the end result before committing to a laser or CNC cut. That’s why I set out to create a tool with a live 3D model, allowing for dynamic, real-time adjustments.
I’ve always had a deep love for parametric design tools like OpenSCAD, which I used frequently. A few years ago, I discovered JSCAD, and it sparked the idea of creating JavaScript code that could generate 3D models—viewable and manipulatable in real-time—all within a web browser.
I hope those who use my generators find value in the time and effort they save.
