Space corner
Hi
I brought this up before,but cab anyone help me with this, I started using a thermwood equipped shop to machine my parts for me and for my next job I have a corner drawer cabinet that I need to incorporate into the kitchen.

Re:
I believe the only way you can do that is with a display panel manually placed and rotated to the correct location.Denny Jahnz wrote:I understand how to put the mid rails in the corner unit but I also need a partition on the left and right sides to be able to attach the slides to and they are flush with the face frame openings but run at a 45 degree angle to the face frame. Is there any way to accomplish that?

Denny, Just an idea, but if there are cabinets on either side why not use a regular drawer base with the corner face frame and the deck notched to matched. I threw together a .jpg to show what I mean, its not correct but you get the idea. As far as notched drawers not yet, but you could use 3 drawers with one turned sideways.

Hey Denny
If you want holes drilled for slides, as Dan said create a display panel the size you need and then take the panel into the part editor and create the holes there. You could also take a cabinet insert a couple of partitions then delete everything except the partitions then put the correct size drawer fronts on and the holes will be drilled in the partitions. Then just name the cabinet partitions or what ever suits, save it and send with your cabinet batch file or insert it in a room which ever way you are sending your jobs to be cut. If you don't need holes drilled than Dan's method is all you have to do.

Denny,
I have done these before..cutting a normal corner cab and then shop fabricating the partitions for the drawers is probably your best bet...
The alignment of the drawer slides and the drawer faces will be a challenge..
The partitions are easy to machine(mitres on opposite ends) and you can pocket screw them into the base...
Your top shoould be stretcher top and count on a couple of cleats to suck that partition into the cabside...
a good thing to get machined ahead of time is the drawer bottoms(if you are using tandembox) the odd shape and required precision really make this a time consuming endeavour...
We used a festool saw and guide rail to make the initial and then templated from there...
For the sink base it can be done ahead of time but your measurements need to be dead on...
What we did was install the sink cab and sink then fabed our drawers from there....it was very quick..

Thanks for the responses. I guess for now I will do the corner cabinet and do the partitions manually. I build my base cabinet runs as one unit instead of multiple cabinets so I am still working out how to join the corner cabinets to the side cabinets within the program and get a useable cutlist. I am hoping with a little more experience I can get the machine to do some of this stuff that is time consuming to do manually.

George,
I just downloaded a couple of the carvings and saved them to my desktop. You can then double click the .exe file on your desktop and it will install the carvings on your computer. I found the carvings by opening the Cabinet/Assembly editor then going to Display Objects and the carvings were listed under Britanny Credenza and Renaissance Hall Collection.
I think it will save the parts in the Collection that they were taken from so they are kind of hard to find.
Look for something new in Display objects and I'll bet you find your carvings.
