Thermwood / eCabinet Systems

Hi Nick I'm not sure whats going on there. I am putting the door into the doors, saved, slab file I just use the software, so I like you am just trying to reproduce your steps. I couldn't load your door as it was broken and I have attached the error messages. It still looks like a Constraints thing ...

There is a limit of 10 questions and we have 12 available joints, I left off the last available 2 KD / RTA fastener through and Lock dado through So I suppose list them down in the comments if you feel so inclined. Hi Guys We mainly use frame less cabinets with the Lock Dado setting and use a straig...

I don't use face frames, so I am probably missing the point, but just a thought bump if you are stuck.
The setting in the attached picture seems to adjust that.
Same thickness as shelf material.

Hi Sarah As in the replies above, there are probably as many ways to do this as there are ecab users. I made a little video which took about 30 minutes with interruptions and then I exceeded my free upload limit so I cut it by about 2 thirds and just put the last bit mainly in the part editor up. It...

Hi Jeremy.

Yep, I am over constrainted as well using metric (127mm)

Hi Nicholas. When I examined it in the part editor it seemed okay. When I zoom in I cant see that slit. (it does look like edging in your image) The door came into my ecabs unconstrained. Unless somebody else comes in with an answer, My two cents. I used to have a lot of problems with constraints. I...

Hi Nicholas.
Perhaps if you post the cabinet we can understand better.
I cant fully follow your process or method thinking.
What is the slit?

Beautiful work Scott. Always nice to see other peoples work and methodology. I was also a bit inspired by Kens ideology. I didn't read the book but he did a video or something and he mentioned something like with CNC machining we have to rethink the way we do joinery. I have always aspired to do tha...

Thanks Clint

Hi Clint Thanks for the reply. Just sent those files Looked up Rectangular optimization as you suggested See the little window in the help menu that shows the nest closet to home and furthest from home for offall? You can call me dumb and blind, But I cant see that window? :? I know my nests were cl...

I love my Ecabs :D But I don't use the line drawing editor. We have tried and tried to make it work for us, tried to become more proficient, tried to adjust to what we can do in there. But every time we just decide Its not as good as our old way and give up. The lady that helps me to do drawings jus...

Hi Guys. The rectangular nesting does appear to be more efficient. I've used the new nest rectangular optimizing a couple of times now. Both times the edging on the labels has printed on the opposite edge to which it is meant to go. Has anyone else encountered this? Two other things that seem to ups...

Just another example
Change the cabinet width from 782mm to 630mm.
Works okay
Attempt to change it back to 800mm error message wants to revert to previous cabinet.

Can anyone else reproduce this? Standard base frame less. Control C Apply lock dado construction via global settings. Change KDA RTA's Take bottom shelf into part editor. Put a rectangular geometry onto the back edge overlapping the back edge. Pointer, Right click, Cut pocket using closed contour. C...

Hi Stuart
I followed as best I could in metric and it seems okay with plain doors
Some thoughts, attach the cabinet so we can have a look at it.
Are they plain doors?
Do you have constraints on the doors? That was messing with placement of some doors I was trying to attach to a cabinet.
