5/8" Dado Nesting as a 1/4"?

Darrel Wells · Post by **Darrel Wells** » Fri, Mar 25 2011, 11:19AM

Can someone help me with this? I have 5/8 material everywhere, but the top and deck are nested with a 1/4" Dado for the left end. I've checked all my settings and can't find if it's something I'm missing. This is a test cabinet, but this issue is showing up in a batched job I have to cut. Help?

Hey Darrel,

This is odd and sounds like a bug to me. The issue is in the eCabinets NEST, not only at the machine. It looks fine in Cabinet Editor. If I take this cabinet and only change the size to at least a 23" square box, problem solved. If I change left end to full width blind dado, problem solved. Any ideas THM guys?

If only the height is changed to at least 22.75, dadoes are correct.

MAYBE all other cabinets in your batch that are taller than 22.75 are O.K.

Gentlemen,

Thanks for all the info. It seems that the mixed flush setup of the top and deck is causing an odd issue for the full dado at certain heights. I will get it listed for the programmers to get resolved. The best stopgap for now (as mentioned in this thread) would be to use a 100% thickness blind dado with zero insets. Sorry for the inconvenience.
