As a hobbyist woodworker, I found it difficult to visualize how different wood species and grain patterns would look together before making the first cut. This project is a specialized CAD-lite tool for the browser. It allows makers to toggle between edge-grain and end-grain views and experiment with dimensions and species (like Walnut, Maple, and Cherry) to generate a precise visual blueprint before heading to the shop.
