Thermwood / eCabinet Systems

Ryan,
I emailed the file. I'm running build 2.

Thanks,
Pat

Thanks, Ryan. My CPU usage is ranging from 1% - 60%. Physical memory usage is fairly static at 1GB out of 2GB total. My machine is a 2.6 GHz P4. Graphics card is NVIDIA GeForce 4 MX 440. I just tried a few things with my small (4-cabinet) project. It took 1.5 minutes to open the file, and about the ...

Sad to say, but it's nearly unusable for me. A few examples: It takes 10 seconds after clicking on something for the highlighting to appear. There is a long delay (from a few seconds to a minute otr more) for just about every transition within the cabinet editor. Rendering is painfully slow. I'm try...

Thanks, Joe. I was afraid that would be the answer. Seems like this would be an easy change to make in the Door Editor. eCabs thwarted my other slick idea, which was to put a frame-only door and a slab door in the same opening, and play with the Inset parameter. Oh, well. But your idea will do the t...

Is it possible to design a door with 2 different wood species, specifically, one for the frame and another for the panel?

Thanks,
Pat

Thanks, George.
You guys are great!

Rick,
Thanks. Those look pretty darn close. What's a "PE cut"?

Thanks,
Pat

Thanks, Rick. I could try that. Would the glass automatically sit in the frame like in the picture? I was able to make a simplistic metal and glass door by taking a Comestoga TW-10 door (frame only + glass) and changing the texture to a silver/gray. Any idea where I can find a texture that looks lik...

I'm doing a job with metal framed glass doors. (See pic). Any good ideas for how to get a door like this into eCabs? Does eCabs offer a way to add new types of doors beyond the Conestoga and slab doors provided?

Thanks,
Pat

The ability to show wall associations for light fixtures seems to be broken. I updated my eCabs today, created a new room, and added a light fixture. When I associate it to a wall, it works, but the association is indicated as "None" when I hover the cursor over the fixture. The light fixt...

Thanks, Mike.
I was able to do it without creating 2 circles. Just drew one in Contour mode on top of my rectangular part, returned to part editor and clicked Create Part Using Closed Contour. I guess Create is the opposite of Cut as far as determining which element of the part is kept?

Cheers,
Pat

I'm trying to create a circular display cube. It will become a frameless mirror. I tried taking a square, 1/4 inch thick cube into the Part Editor and cutting a circular geometry out of it, but how do I get it to keep the circle, not the rectangle with a circular cutout?

Thanks,
Pat

Thanks, Leo.

I need a display object that is a cylindrical column, 3\" diameter by 60\" long. It needs to have a metallic finish, like a brushed or matte aluminum. Any suggestions on how to create one?

Thanks,
Pat
