Hello,

Here is my first contribution... Quite a big one actually, at least I spent quite some time to improve my prototypes before submitting !
Please let me know if anything is wrong, so I can improve it.

Thanks for your huge work ! \o/

Have a nice day...

It looks like issue #742 is causing a failure here (not sure it is the only one, I am still new to github...)

This looks gorgeous!

I understand this is for paper which is not super strong. Still a few places look pretty fragile. E.g. the top handle pieces or the front and back which are almost cut to pieces by the screws.

Note that there is currently a way to add screws to the regular finger joints. This is currently not used anywhere but the code might still work. You need to pass bedBolts and bedBoltSettings either to the edge itself or to rectangularWall.

There is #36 but there hasn't been much movement lately...

Thanks for the good comment ! The structure itself is made of wood (I use 5 mm plywood, I think less than that might be too fragile), the paper sheets come inside but are rectangular (see the picture, these are A4) and not cut by the laser cutter (I set the "original" japanese size as the default, but maybe A4 or A3 would be better...?).

Thanks also for the advice regarding bedBolts, I think I figured out how it works, I'll have to check if I can make use of it (the distribution of the holes along the edge might be an issue for me as I need to place the side ones at least as far as the side walls although the top and bottom go further).
From what I can see there are still some missing features (such as holes in the middle of the fingerHoles, but it is not much of an issue yet, maybe I'll dig into it.
For the record, I decided to add the possibility to use screws because I wand my box to be unmountable for maintenance (i.e. replacing a part if broken or otherwise damaged). I built the first ones (including the one on the picture) by forcing the pieces together (without glue), but it makes it next to impossible to repair if needed.
