i resent again and renested, from what i can see the holes are now in.

it makes no sense. seems to be an occasional error.

We currently dont use the drill bank as we nees to adjust it as its out of place but havent had time

To make do we've set up a 5mm drill in the main tool section. Havent had an issue till now.

Its doing it on this assembly without fail but as mentioned it has not always been the case on other jobs ...

recently we have been getting cabinets without hinge plate holes or drawer runner holes. also construction screw holes havent been added as well.

ive looked at the job in ecabinets and it is displaying the holes that should be there but the cut cabinets havent got the holes.

the patterns we use ...

hi donald,

i have opened you cabinet and i can see what has happened. i couldnt get it to work on that cabinet.

however, i started a new cabinet and checked and changed the settings before putting in the stretcher.
mine has now got full dado left, right, top and bottom. so may be try designing ...

hi clint,

have sent you an email. please use the second one as first one may have already been added to a tooling group.


thanks for taking some time to have a look into it

hi clint,

i understand that if its not set in tooling it uses the default tooling group, but ive added a job with a completely new colour and havent put it in any tooling group so should use default group and the default is set to use 12.6 but uses 9.56 instead.

i have no issues with how to use ...

our Mel 16 Pbd HMR is a thickness of 16.25mm could the machine possibly think because the material loaded is also 16.25mm it puts it under the Mel 16 Pbd HMR? we have the Mel in a tooling group.

hi dale, thanks for the reply.

i did originally think of that but our default is setup to use the 12.6mm. is there another setting there that could be interfering with the default setting? ive made sure that it wasnt ignoring tooling groups.

The last few CN updates won't install on my CS41 either, if I just double-click on the installer file. Probably something to do with it having WinXP on it. You can install it from the command line, however. Open a DOS window (click start, Run, then type CMD) and navigate to the directory with CN in ...

I have the same machine. add more ram up to 4 gig.
eliminate what the machine reserves for virtual reality.
Delete temporary files and folders.
Use your restore disc. Do a restore on the whole system. Thermwood sent me a new restore disk last week as mine was corrupted.
My machine actually runs ...

on our thermwood we have setup tooling groups so different materials have different cutters and specifically outline cutting tool.
we use a 9.56mm (tool 1) cutter to cut out melamine chipboard and a 12.6mm to cut our MDF board.

we use different cutters as the 9.56mm cant clear the MDF as fast and ...

i have duplicated the issue your having. from what i can see you have set so has a single row of holes instead of one on the left or right.
could you set the left margin to be the centre of the left side of partition and same for the rightbut negative number?
