Convex Face Frame Cabinet
I woke up last night with the solution to drawing curved face frames in eCabinets. The funny thing was, I haven't been trying to do this. It just popped into my head. I will try a concave next.

Re: Convex Face Frame Cabinet
Nice Kerry. Did you use display boards, cubes or panel? We did something similar awhile back. I was able to contact Dan Epps and he sent me his video that he made on how to make the doors also.
Yes! Oh Yes! I Think We Are Going to make It!

That is an actual face frame.

Re: Convex Face Frame Cabinet
Cool! Could you elaborate on how you accomplished this? Unless I am missing something I did not think that you could use different thickness materials for face frames.

Scott,
That is exactly it. Create a face frame material with a thickness equal to the rise of your frame arc then create a tool to shape the parts.

Will,
The box will certainly nest and cut fine. The face frame parts would be just straight cuts in 6" material. I would need to create the curved mid rails in the part editor if I wanted to nest them.

Re: Convex Face Frame Cabinet
Thanks George. Really good to hear from you.
Scott,
I would like to see Dan's video as I can't remember the technique that he used. Here are some doors I did a while back but they are way too involved to use every day.
