Dados being treated as pockets

Post by Zach Froble »

Has anyone ran into this problem before.

All cabinets created in Build 10, and they all have blind dado contruction. They are no part editor cuts on any of them. But when I go to nest in CN 5.08 it is treading all my dados as pockets and it wants that correct diameter of tooling to do so. I have never run into this before and was wondering if any one else has.


Thanks,
Zach

Nick,

How did you fix this problem. I have 22 cabinets that I need to cut parts for asap, but I haven't found a fix yet.

Hi Zach As I said I have not had the problem with items generated from eCabs. I find most of this comes from not having the material associated with the tooling. Try and add the material to your tool group again sometimes that works
