Re: CN hangs when nesting profiled MDF doors

I will say it takes more than 4 minutes to nest just one on a sheet, and although I've given the computer time to complete the function, it never completes a nest of more than one piece with the profile.

CN hangs when nesting profiled MDF doors

I have a kitchen, with profile modeled doors, that hangs whenever I nest more than on door/drawer front at a time. I proofed a few different speeds and feeds, with a single drawer front, and that worked as expected. But I can't get a full sheet of these nested without the computer just stalling at t...

Re: Magic Doors!

Clint, I see that eCabS has an update to 6.2.10.2. I thought I'd let you know that this happens in this version too, for troubleshooting. :P

Re: Magic Doors!

Thanks, Clint. I often manually size doors, when there is stack so that the lock hardware is contiguous about the horizontal elements in a cabinet.

Magic Doors!

Having trouble with door positioning, maybe its my process- you tell me ;) Begin with a standard frameless base cabinet. Change the size to 23w, 84h, 18d. Set detached 4" tk. Add a fixed shelf, and position it such that the top opening is 23.375. Apply double doors to this opening, and change t...

Re: Rectangular Optimization bugs

Thanks for clearing that up, I'm looking forward to using this new feature, and seeing where yield is truly improved, and where it just makes sense to keep using our previous settings.

Re: Rectangular Optimization bugs

I've noticed that the rectangular nest also overrides the keep flip ops together parameter. Not sure if this was intentional or not, but I noticed that the drawers for the job I first used the rectangular nesting on, ALL the sheets were flip ops, instead of ganging them all up for the first sheets.

Re: KD/RTA Change Default

Lol "Sub'ed"

I haven't been able to do this yet, and I know of no-one who has. I can't even get the construction settings to hold a DIFFERENT hardware ptn for joinery, I literally have to insert a part, then change the hardware pattern EVERY. DARN. TIME. :wall:

Roughing to skin

Has anyone been able to set CN to rough to the skin, then ONLY cut through the skin on the final finish pass? I can't seem to get the setting right for this. My current setup will run the roughing steps to the skin, then cut through the skin with the roughing bit, freeing the work from the off-fall,...
