I'm happy we could help!

Thanks Clint
That is good news! We'll download it and put it to the test. I wonder if this is what has been plaguing us for the last several years. We could just never put an evaluation on some part that was repeatable. I first posted in 2022 about this issue. Thanks again!

Clint, I've attached a test file. The cabinets on the left-hand side of the wall were placed lower and upper before placing an upper with a recessed back. For the cabinets on the right-hand side, I first put the upper with the recessed back and then placed the lower. I then edited the upper ...

We have intermittent problems with drawer sides being incorrect lengths (different from what should be computed from the inset). We have tried various approaches to the issue but without permanent success.

I will give our drawer settings first.

We use blum undermount rails and need a 21-inch ...

Thanks, Clint! That seems to have fixed the issue. I appreciate your help!

Good evening, all!
Has anyone been having an e-cab crash when changing the colors of walls or the finishes on materials or doors? This is happening with great frequency, and not only on one computer. If it were just one, I would think suspiciously of the computer, but two of them makes me wonder ...

Thanks Forrest! That gives us something to work on. In the drawing, the sides show the correct length. It's when you TWD, nest and cut that the parts are short. We'll rebuild your undermount drawer and try that. Whats unusual is that some of the parts are correct.

We have an intermittent problem with drawer sides being 1/2" short. The fronts and back lengths are fine. It seems to be a random thing. Some jobs have no problem at all and then we will suddenly have some sides short. Some of the drawers are correct and some aren't, and this is in the same job. We ...

We had a sudden power outage while the machine (CS43) was sitting idle in e-stop. Lasted about 20 minutes and when I went to turn it back on it tells me to check the PLC error messages which are these:

Tue May 14 15:36:00 SINAMICS LINE MODULE DID NOT CONNECT TO PROFIBUS(Check Profibus cable, cable ...

What did the problem turn out to be? Sounded just like what happened to us when the motherboard went out on our CS43. We were down for about 3 days if I remember correctly.

Thanks to all of you that responded. With this information I think I'll work it out..........

steve

Thanks for the response - but they do operate as two separate cuts - the first is a cut through for the initial opening and then the tool comes back later and makes the full pocket cut, starting at the the center of what is the cutout and pocketing all the way to the outside, over the cut-through.

I think its better to post the file so you can see what I'm working with. The front of the machine is the back and the back is the front. Take it to the editor and you'll see what I mean.

Leo, I've tried that; that was the way I originally drew the cutouts and it works after a fashion. there are 3 rectangular openings that are approximately 8 X 14 two that are 12 X 14 and one that is 14 X 16 inches. It takes a long time to pocked that top quarter inch. I'm going to be cutting 10 ...

I'm designing a rather complicated machine case in e-cabinets that has cutouts in 3/4 plywood that are cutout, but then need to be rabbited about one quarter inch deep and one half inch wide, completely around the cutout to insert quarter inch clear acrylic so one can see inside the machine.
