I made these parts using kerf bending. I'm making the software I wrote to create them available! I believe it's the first time it's been done.

I was working on kerf bending parabolas a couple months ago and I noticed that it's hard to apply the tecnique to shapes other than arcs or circles, since there are no formulas to figure out where to place cuts. I'm an amateur programmer so I decided to put my skills to good use: I made a tool anyone can use to find out where to place cuts in order to get a shape like the ones pictured. I believe it's the first time it's been done and I think it could be really useful. It's been a couple months of hard hard work (for no pay lol) but I'm happy of the result and I hope people will find it useful. I would love any kind of feedback!
