Shelf pin swirls...........

Post by Damon Nabors »

What's up with this picture. I took a tv cabinet I am working on and then resized it smaller for a bookshelf that will go to either side of the tv cabinet and when I added the adjustable shelves and looked to make sure the pin holes are in the sides, this is what I get.

So Joe, If I understand you correctly, 5mm is .1968\" not 19.68\".
Thanks for the info. I didn't think about that.

If it needs a 19.68" shelf pin, that must be one heavy shelf Damon... :lol:

You can always enter values in metric even if you are using imperial measurements. Just add the mm after the number and eCabinets will convert it to your chosen dimension display values.

or you can input \"5/25.4\" and it will give you the imperial equivalent of 5mm - .1969\". The input line will do the math you enter and then show in imperial if that is what you like to look at. Same in reverse for going from mm to imperial. You just have to know the conversion factors and it will do the math for you.
We use this a lot as we get prints from multiple places that are never all in the same units.

I think they collect pet rocks. I will need to get the rotary playback to turn the pins though.

I always forget about inserting the mm. Usually it is late when I get in to sit down and draw up estimates. Buy then my brain, what I have left, is in slow motion. But then again, most people that know me very well might say that is a normal state of mind.
