Flat Panel Doors

Post by Phillip Fletcher »

I cannot seem to find a style drawer front that suits what I generally produce for my bookcases. I need a flat panel drawer that is very similar to the slab drawers that I have applied to this bookcase, but I need it mitered with 1.5" style and rail.
Is it possible for me to edit these slab drawers into what I am looking for?

Are you looking for a drawer front to look correct in your drawing or one that will produce an accurate cut list?

I really just need it to look correct in my drawing.

Sounds like you are going a bit overboard for your renderings. It also sounds like you are looking to have a wide edging for these panels and not rails and styles. If I were doing it I would just created 1 1/2" thick banding material and then apply that to the slab drawer fronts. It won't give you miters, but it should be close enough for the look.

That sounds like a good way to construct what I am aiming for, how do I add banding material to a slab?

Go to settings/prefrences>define stock materials>banding stock, and create your banding stock here.then when in the door/drawer editor under door selection set it as your default banding stock
