Sounds like if you are at all serious abbout this businesss that you need to look into production sharing, or at least a decent table saw.If your using e-cabs for design, your not to far off from having a drawing ready for production sharing..
That will definately be an option once things pickup ...

Re: Rough Cut Panels(Beware of math below)
Yea I am hand cutting them with a circular saw and guide. Thats why I need to leave a little on to clean up afterwards. The router I am speaking of is a hand held router with a flush trim bit. I would clamp a mdf straightedge and trim the edges to the final width.

Pizza and beer? NO WAYS! Anyone that know the IT world would know that programmers mainline on coffee - straight from the beans if need be! (Just ask Dan he should know!)
Coffee? ick...Jolt babee. Those were the days, do they even make it anymore? As a programmer, i can attest that at least for ...

Re: Earthquake???
I remember years ago when I was in 6th grade, we had a tremblor here in DELAWARE of all places. (erm thats on the east coast, stuck between maryland, new jersey and pennsylvania). No one knew what it was until like a week later when they confirmed it.

Rough Cut Panels(Beware of math below)
I am trying to get my workflow going with eCabinets. I am planning on rough cutting panels, then finish them on my tablesaw or with a router. In order to do this I am trying to leave about a 1/4" waste on each side of the panel for cleanup(eventually maybe only 1/8th). In order for the nesting ...

Re: Sort of Off Topic and a Rant
I always try to live by the golden rule...even though in business is sometimes doesn't make sense or isn't easy to do.
About two weeks ago, we had a similar call - it happen to be the third one like that this particular week. We had helped both the other two and I was reallying feeling the pinch ...

Re: Placing Crown Mold?
I can get the molding added to the room view, but how do you move it to the top of the cabinets? I have tried everything I can think of, I get it rotated properly, but I cant get it to move up or down.

Re: Unwanted drawer slide holes! Justin???
Would it be a good thing to be able to associate drawer slides to a drawer box in the drawer box editor? Then you could select a maple dovetail drawer box with under mount slides and the appropriate slide would be added or you could choose a Baltic birch drawer with epoxy slides and have the ...

Re: Newbie with a Materials List question
The cost you enter for materials should be the actual purchase cost. Cost is assigned by what is used without regard to the original purchased thickness. It is important, as Rick said, to enter the final thickness of the stock as that is what will be used for calculating the size of components ...

Re: Newbie with a Materials List question
Is there a fix in the works for this then? Since the finished size is different from the purchased size, the cost amount will be wrong. Granted this may not be a huge deal, but it is a fact. Maybe just another column that is the purchased size and the finished size? Just a thought, I dont get the ...

Newbie with a Materials List question
I am sorta confused about the material list. If I buy 4/4 boards, then work them down to 3/4, which dimension should I put in the information? The reason is the calculation for cost will be off ( i am thinking) because I am buying 1inch wood and not 3/4. But then the Dimensions in the design phase ...
