    Profiles & panels

    Browse rectangular profiles in inches or millimeters, plus OSB and particle boards in standard sizes.
  2. 2

    Extra elements

    Doors, pallets, and reinforcement plates for strength and finishing touches.

    Key parameters

    Adjust dimensions, rotate on axes, duplicate with 2x/Nx or copy/paste, apply cuts, textures, and calculate nails or screws.
  4. 4

    Smart positioning

    Move freely, use input boxes, alignment points, or offset for precision.
  5. 5

    Endless combinations

    Mix wood with PVC, connectors, or corrugated panels to expand possibilities. Quick example: a wooden table.
