How CADtsy Digital CNC Files Work
CADtsy sells digital CNC-ready design files for makers, woodworkers, hobbyists, laser-cutting businesses, plasma-cutting businesses, and small fabrication shops. Products are downloadable files, not physically shipped items.
What CADtsy products are
Each CADtsy product is a digital design package prepared for CNC-related workflows. Depending on the product, a download may include formats such as DXF, SVG, PDF, project drawing PDFs, or instruction text files. The exact files included are listed on each product page.
How customers use the files
CADtsy files are commonly used with CNC routers, laser cutters, and CNC plasma cutters. Customers typically import the supplied design files into their preferred CNC, CAM, vector, or design software, then prepare toolpaths, cut settings, material choices, and machine-specific setup before production.
Digital download workflow
After purchase, customers receive downloadable files through the store order process. No physical item is shipped unless a product page explicitly says otherwise.
Before cutting
Before using any digital CNC file, check that the included formats work with your software and machine. Review material thickness, kerf, bit size, toolpath strategy, scale, and any assembly details before cutting a final part.

Frequently asked questions
Are CADtsy products physical items?
No. CADtsy products are digital downloads. No physical item is shipped unless a product page explicitly says otherwise.
What file formats are included?
CADtsy products may include DXF, SVG, PDF, project drawing PDFs, or instruction text files. Check the individual product page for the exact deliverables included with that design.
Can I use CADtsy files with my CNC router, laser cutter, or plasma cutter?
Many CADtsy designs are intended for CNC router, laser cutting, or plasma cutting workflows, but compatibility depends on the product, included file formats, your software, your material, and your machine setup.
Do I need CAM or CNC software?
In most workflows, yes. CADtsy provides design files, but customers are responsible for preparing toolpaths, cut settings, material setup, and machine-specific production details.
