How to use

This is a guided builder. The panel on the left walks you through eight steps — tap the numbered circles at the top to jump between them anytime. Your progress saves automatically on this device, so you can leave and come back later.

The eight steps

Choose a shape — a rectangle, circle, a country outline, or upload your own SVG. Set the size in millimetres.
Choose a material — a wood finish (birch, oak, walnut) or a solid plastic colour.
Add fixtures — optional mounting holes. Add them automatically or one at a time, drag them into place, and pick their colour.
Add your coins — pick a currency tab and add coins (or use “Add all selected” for the whole set), or enter a custom size.
Arrange the coins — try a layout (Grid, Circle, Rows, Fit to shape), move them all above the holder, or drag each coin yourself.

Text becomes outlines on export, so your design looks identical on any computer.
