Axleke Gazop

Design wood veneer inlays, then get numbered pieces and a cut plan 🗺️ to follow. Axleke Gazop is a planning tool 🛠️ for marquetry, the craft of building pictures and patterns from thin sheets of wood veneer. You design an inlay on a grid, and the app 📱 turns it into a numbered set of pieces with a cut order and a layout for your veneer. Design on a board Pick a veneer, then drag ✋ across the board to paint triangles with it. Fill an area, pick a colour back up from the board, pan around, undo and redo. Turn the grain dial to set the direction of the grain for each veneer, because the same wood reads as a different colour when it is turned. Mirror, quad and rotate modes repeat your strokes across the board. From design to cut list 📋 - The board is split into numbered pieces. Thin necks and tiny pieces are flagged, so you can fix them before you cut. - The cut plan 🗺️ lists each piece with its veneer, size, area and grain. Pieces are ordered from the background to the inner details. - Tick off each piece as you cut it and watch 👀 the progress 📈 ring fill. - The leaves view packs the pieces of each veneer onto leaves with the grain aligned. It shows how much of each leaf you use and how much veneer you need in total 💯. Veneers and motifs Sixteen built-in veneers range from holly and maple to padauk, walnut and ebony. You can mix 🥣 your own veneer and use it in any inlay. Eight starter motifs, such as a compass rose, chevron band and checker parquetry, give you a first design to build 🔨 on. Your workshop Set the leaf width and units on the bench, keep your inlays in a project list 📋, and come back to the last one you worked on. Axleke Gazop is for hobby woodworkers, makers and anyone who wants to plan 🗺️ an inlay before they pick up a knife. Open Axleke Gazop, start 🚀 a new ✨ inlay and see how many pieces your design needs.
