It would be my pleasure. However, the modifications on my fork also include changes that you might not want merged with your repository. Like the < id > tag in the inx file and the submenu entry it lists under. And also changes to the readme. If you give me commit access, i can push only the relevant changes to your repo. |

I have an X-carve CNC mill that I need to use it for. And since CNC mills can't cut sharp inner corners, a pattern called a 'dogbone' is used, so that the tabs fit in correctly. (The smallest bit i can use on my mill effectively at fast speeds is 2mm (equivalent to the kerf). So you can probably see how this would be a problem if I'm trying to make a box out of 3mm plywood). The intention of my fork was to be able to do a dogbone version of the tabbed box. I am still in the process of figuring out how to modify the code in your repo to accomplish that. The first step was to get your code running on the newer inkscape version, which is what has been accomplished so far. |

I understand. You might want to look into contributing those changes to boxes.py, that would make sure more people can use it. |

The boxes.py is very laser centric, and many of the awesome things done there cannot be done with a mill, like the flexible hinge stuff. I'll see where it can fit in though. But let me get to making a successful working dogbone first :) |
I could make a branch that is safe for you to pull from, if you'd prefer it that way over giving me commit access. |
Thank you a lot! I'll try it out soon and then merge it. If that's ok with you!
