What can you design and cut?
The tool exports a standard DXF file — the universal format for 2D cutting — so whatever you draw is ready for any plasma, laser, or CNC machine. Common parts people make with this free DXF editor:
- Brackets, gussets, and base plates
- Custom flanges and mounting plates
- Gaskets and shims
- Signs, address plaques, and decorative panels
- Replacement parts traced from measurements
- Prototype flat parts for welding and fabrication
Frequently asked questions
Is this DXF drawing tool really free?
Yes. The Can-Cut drawing board is a free online 2D CAD editor. You can draw, edit, and export a DXF file at no cost and without creating an account.
Do I need to download or install any CAD software?
No. It runs entirely in your web browser — no download, no install, and no plugins. It works on Windows, Mac, and Chromebook, so you can design a part from any computer.
Can I export my drawing as a DXF file?
Yes. Everything you draw exports to a standard DXF file that opens in any CAD program and is ready for plasma, laser, waterjet, or CNC router cutting.
What can I design with this online CAD tool?
Flat 2D parts: brackets, gussets, base plates, gaskets, signs, flanges, and custom panels. Draw with lines, arcs, circles, rectangles, and polylines, then set exact dimensions.
Is this a real 2D CAD program?
It is a lightweight, browser-based 2D CAD and drafting tool built for one job: producing clean, cut-ready DXF geometry quickly. It is not a heavy desktop suite like AutoCAD or SolidWorks, and that is the point — no learning curve.
Can I use the DXF file for laser or CNC cutting too?
Yes. DXF is the universal exchange format for 2D cutting. The file you export works for plasma cutting, laser cutting, waterjet, and CNC routing — not just Can-Cut.
How do I get a part made after I draw it?
Export your DXF, then upload it on the Can-Cut quote page for an instant price on plasma-cut steel, aluminum, or stainless — shipped across Canada.
