Re: Lock Dado w/ Pocket Screw. Spot hole w/ fixed shelf?

Hey Forest,

Detail in preferences for cabinet editor is set to max already.

Nest shows no spot holes on fixed shelf, but does show them on deck and top.

I opened construction settings on the fixed shelf (2nd one up from deck) in the main menu and after closing all the windows it rebuilt WITH spot holes. Then after adjusting some other parts....pooof, it's gone again. I took a screen capture in case it reappeared. Cabinet attached is without spot hol...

Lock Dado w/ Pocket Screw. Spot hole w/ fixed shelf?

Playing with this new (to me) joinery.
I can't seem to get a spot hole (on part with dado) when using this joinery on a fixed shelf (yes, box for spot dado is checked on add shelf settings).
Works on deck and top.

Am I missing something?

After reading another post, just wondering if there are any top notch eCabinet operators who may have time and desire to do sub-contract work where they do the eCabinet portion of our jobs. I would actual...

Re: DXF Pocket problem

Update: Scott, That worked as you already know. Any idea why the CN is asking for .7 material when the outline is .699? Not a big deal just wondering. Dave, Converting the circle to a polyline also worked. However, I was unable to get the "pedit" command to make a polyline out of the circl...

Re: DXF Pocket problem

Scott,

Thanks. I had not even noticed that setting. I guess that clean up is kind of like a final pass allowance in ArtCAM.

I'll go test. Thanks very much!

Re: DXF Pocket problem

Dave,

are you saying CN will treat "ALL" circles as a drill or all that are not converted to a polyline?

Re: spoil switch and M999 I'm getting back into the daily oversight of our Thermwood router and need a little help. I need to adjust the setting for the spoil switch and it looks like the manual is telling me to access the M999 macro by opening the tool measure dialog and then hit cancel. But when I...
