Hi guys, I need some input of setting up a new dovetail bit. We are using 5/8 drawer material and have been using a bit made for 1/2" material for dovetails. We purchased a dovetail bit for 5/8 material and are not sure what we need to do to set it up. Changes in program, etc.... Any advice is much appreciated.
Thanks
Jason

You will need to create a drawerbox using 5/8" thick material. Then follow the instructions in the link below.

After clicking on the link you will see a column of option on the left=hand side of the screen. Select dovetail drawer boxes>eCabinet Systems Drawer Box Designer Setup. This wll tell you what you need to change.
