I see all these time-savers, BUT

Post by Al Navas »

I NEED a simple way to do raised panel ends for an entertainment center I am designing.

Maybe I will understand everything a little better after next week, when I will taking the eCabinet Systems course in Kansas City. I have tried searching, and found several posts by using the terms \"raised panel end\" in the search, including selecting the radio button with the phrase Search for all terms.

The problem: I cannot possibly follow all the suggestions made by Gurus, Advanced Users, etc. I know, it IS me. But I need some help to understand things a little bit better. I believe the best way to describe where I am is: \"I am stuck...\"

I would like to see a short tutorial on HOW to create the raised panel ends using the various tools, and then something on HOW to place them on the cabinet end such that they will be included in the cut list. And, of course, to ensure they WILL render properly to show the client.

Thanks for all your feedback and help.

Thanks, George. It sure helps me the way you showed it! NOW I know just how little I do know, and realize that I still have a long way to go. THAT is the reason I will be at the course next week :lol: .

Hey Al, you can also click on the eCabinet Systems Home then click manual. There you will find all the info on how to use the program.

Thanks, Rick!

I am about 1/3 of the way through eCabinet Systems Made Easy, and it HAS helped quite a bit. George's mini-tutorial helped quite a LOT!

But I think what I lack most is the course, to better understand the program. I hope that the three-day workshop will help me more than anything else I have done to date, though.
