License

Unless a design page says otherwise, every file on DXF Design Point is released under Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0). Here is what that means in workshop language.

Last updated 19 Jan 2026

You may

Download and cut the files for personal projects, gifts, education and charity work, with no attribution required for private use.

Sell physical objects made from the files, in any quantity, through any channel, including print-on-demand and market stalls.

Modify the geometry: resize, re-joint for a different thickness, combine with your own artwork, or use part of a design inside a larger piece.

You must

Credit “DXF Design Point” with a link to the original design page somewhere reasonable — a listing line, a swing tag, a footer. For a modified design, say “based on a DXF Design Point design”.

Keep the licence notice intact if you share a screenshot, a tutorial or a printed plan that reproduces the drawing.

You may not

Redistribute, resell or bundle the digital files themselves, including in 'free DXF packs', Telegram groups, marketplace listings or paid USB collections.

Claim the geometry as your own work, or register it as a trademark or design right.

Use the files to train a generative model that outputs substantially similar vector geometry for redistribution.

No warranty, no certification

The files are provided as-is. We test on our machines with our materials; yours will differ. Nothing here is a certified structural, load-bearing, food-safe or toy-safety product. If a part matters for safety, have it checked by someone qualified.

Design pages occasionally carry an additional licence — some contributors choose CC BY-NC. The licence shown on the design page always takes precedence over this summary.

Frequently asked questions

Do I have to credit you on every item I sell?

No. One credit in your shop listing, on your packaging or in your product description covers everything you make from that design.

Can I put the files on my own website?

Not as a download. Link to the design page instead — that keeps the revision history and the download count in one place.
