It is actually two tables that mate together to make one large one. The customers are going to use one table for now in their small conference room then mate the tables later on in a larger room. The eCabinets drawings were very important for this job to show the customers just how crowded the room is going to be with the first table and six chairs. Here is a link to the presentation drawings.
Mike,
Everything was done in eCabinets. Since this drawing was done just for the design presentation I just used several \"Display Cubes\" cut out and machined in the \"Part Editor\" I think it is great that eCabinets is capable of these things other than just boxes. My customers are always impressed also which is very important to me.
The presentation is done with a little feature in PhotoShop that takes My images, re-sizes them, optimizes them for the net, puts them on a web page with backgrounds all with just couple of mouse clicks. All I have to do is upload a folder to the web server.
Thanks Dan,
I don't know if I have the job yet. It will be fun to build if I get it and I am thinking about using some of the eCabinets finishing tricks to spruce this thing up.
You make it all sound so easy! Great work again Kerry. Keep up the good work. By the way, have you had any success with Alibre? I've played with it a bit but haven't had much time.
Hi Brian,
I opened Alibre a couple of times but I have software burnout. I don't want to spend any time learning anything new right now. I think it can be good software but doesn't seem very intuitive on first glance. With Rhinoceros I was able to open and start drawing. (a little) With Alibre all I can do is stare at an empty page and act confused. Probably just me. Luckily since the release of Ver. 4 I can do most everything I need to do in eCabinets.

I agree with you on the Alibre software, I did there online demo & I'm still confused
Finally got around to this project. The customers opted for just the single table but it turned out OK. Forgive the photography the fluorescent lights really bleach out the inlay and there isn't enough room for my lights in this little room.
