Need to angle this cabinet
I have this odd kitchen to design. On one wall there is a pantry and fridge. That wall is 150 degrees to a 2' wall which at this point goes back to all 90 degrees for the remainder of the kitchen. The problem is that the said of my bottom and top cabinets have to be angled so they fit against the fridge and the fridge cabinet respectively. That should be 30 degrees.
How do I angle these two cabinets?
I really need the guru's help here....
Thanks guys.

Re: Need to angle this cabinet
Assuming that the drawing shows a 90 degree corner cab just running into the fridg.I would cut the deck and top at the required angle and use a end from another corner cab rotate and save as an assembly

Thanks Scott.
Almost what I need but it does look odd like that by the fridge. I would like the door by the fridge to be paralel to the door of the fridge.....so I guess both doors with be at a 30 degree angle.

Try making the corner cabinet with a angled front

Re: Need to angle this cabinet
Thanks Scott.
I have done that and it works well for the bottom or for the top but not for both as the angle is different. I am now attacking the problem in a different angle so to speak. I couldn't make both top and bottom look to be at the same angle so I am building 4 cabinets to make the set (two tops and two bottom). So far that is the closest I have the angle to look similar.
I have been beating my head against the wall for two days on this. Nothing seem to work well enough so far to give me a nice looking corner. I may just have to extend the angled wall straight so I don't have to do this angle stuff to the cabinets.

Re: Need to angle this cabinet
This is a concept cabinet that may work for you.
Take the corner cabinet, change the angle to 150 degrees, remove the face frame and back, extend the left front so that it is 24". You'll need to add the backs and create the front components, so this would eventually be an assembly. Once you are done install it backwards by using the Freestyle placement mode. You'll need to assosciate it to wall(s) and then play with moving it into position.
The face frame of the two cabinets could be modified so that they meet in the middle.

Re: Need to angle this cabinet
Wow these are awesome. I'll see if I can reproduce those.
Thanks a ton. This is the best I have seen (including the misfits I have come up with LOL)
