How do you make arched cabinets similar to the entertainment center Damon made in the post on asthetics

Are you talking about something like this? This is a little more basic, but still arched. I had to do it fast and furious, so no bells or whistles.

Greg, here is something a little simpler. Take a standard upper cabinet. Go to construction settings and then go to face frame. Go to page two. Set your left and right styles to any size you like, maybe 3", then set your upper rail to 15". click ok.

Now, size your cabinet to say, 30 x 12 x 60, then click the upper rail and take it to the parts editor and cut the arch out of the part and return. You should end up with something that would look like this:

Hi Damon,

Where are you getting the crown molding from? The vendors that come w/ the software seem to have a limited quantity. Or are you creating it yourself.
