part editor ?

Post by Darren Harvey »

i'm trying to make a wine rack. the question is that i need to place 2 display panels, or a stretcher in. i also need to take it in part editor and cut out wine holes to place the wine in. i can take a display panel in part editor, but i need full dados on all four sides. a stetcher would be great but i can't take that in part editor. any suggestions with my rambling? thanks darren :wall:

Darren,
If you could give me an idea or picture of what you are trying to acheive, I may be able to help you out. You can post it here or send it to program@thermwood.com.

Also, attach the dimensions of the rack.

todd, here is the hsf. right know i have a display panel in there. what i need is a full dado all around, and be able to take it into part editor. i guess what i want is the best of both worlds. i would like to use a stretcher, but i can't take that into part editor. thanks darren

todd, to give you an idea what we are doing. here is another picture. we took 2 cabinets. 1 we did full dados through part editor on all 4 sides. the 2nd cabinet we made the right sizefrom the back and gave it a inset toward the front. the 3rd cabinet we did the same as the 2nd cabinet. this was a little long to do. i hope you have a faster and easier way to do this. thanks darren

Hi Darren
Try this one it can be resized
I used just 1 display part and that is the top.
When you look at the front it is the bottom of the cabinet in the program.
Let me know if this helps

Thanks George! I kind of got swamped here, but thanks for adding the file.

Darren,
George's example looks like the best way to make it resizable.

hey guys- thank you so much for the inputs. but i tried something a little different. width 14.5", depth 23", made the front a strecher, lost the right side, and gave it 2 partions. also i got all my settings right, full dados right, and was able to go into part editor and load the dxf's for the hole cut outs. i could of used 1 partion and left the right side on, but this worked. thanks guys for the help darren
