Please email me direct to help resolve.

make_sides is where the problem is. Which version of CabMaker are you running? This is important so I can go to the exact line of code that triggered the error.

It could be in the profile of the side or it could be with some of the dado's.

There is more to go wrong (bad parameters) with base cabinets - so it is helpful to know what all your cabinet and rule settings are. One area where people have issues is with integrated kicks where they use parameters that create duplicate points.

So please do not clutter up this thread - so send me your responses by email.

[Garry K]

I should mention that with a little help from me Martin was able to determine the problem. It had to do with setting the kick height to 0.

Since several people have had this error I have coded around it. In the future this one won't bite you.

CabMaker 3.0.133 and CutMaster 3.0.1.81 are now available on my website.

Now working on additional pilot holes in CutMaster for various configurations of backs.

[Garry K]

CabMaker 3.0.134 and CutMaster 3.0.1.82 are now available on my website.

I'm looking at providing more merge options to help out users who build closets (wardrobes).

I would like to get construction details from users and or explanations on how you guys build your closets.

I'm thinking something like this.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hq1BOo_g16g

[Garry K]

There are a number of closet styles that can be simply created without complicated merging. In this case I adjusted left and right gaps for ALL cabinets by 1/2 the case thickness. Sides go to floor. I omited left side for Cabinets 2 and 3.

Now we need Cutmaster to support double sided machining.

[Garry K]

There are some situations where the back side of a part needs machining. Personally with CNC I would avoid it as much as possible. Having said that there are situations that could benefit from it.

The nesting that cutmaster produces will always machine the left side of common panels. The right side will go into it's own folder and not be a nest. Additionally the outside shape of the part will be in layer that will have it's name appended with an underscore signifying that the polyline is for reference only.

Second side machining means you will have to set aside parts that need second side machining after the nest is complete. Then you will have to load the correct second side DXF and position the part correctly on the CNC.

So there is a lot that can go wrong and that is why I would try to avoid it.

Hello,

would there be a way to add this kind of door profile?

or

I thougth about it, and I guess there are 2 difficulties:

• the door profiles are all for framed door, so I suppose the magic behind your "add door profile" process won't work with this. But maybe is there something to do with "panel profiles" you mention in the manual? but I don't see any panel profile in "door profile.skp"
• there should be some kind of specific process capable of adaptating the number of groove regarding the door size.

Using a simple texture would be easier I guess, with the problem of having to create different texture for each case (wood type, color, orientation).

br,

[Garry K]

I can't see adding a door like this. However I am starting to work on doors and will be adding an optional bead for Shaker style doors.

[Garry K]

I've added 4 default Panel Bead Profiles and an option for Bead Spacing and a check box for Dead Center. Beading will follow the grain and will work for 5 piece Shaker and Slab.

From top to bottom these are called Standard, Smooth, V Groove and Half Round.

Bead Spacing

Dead Center

[Garry K]

Cabmaker now gives you a tool to help you choose door sizes for beaded doors.

As you can see if you choose a bead spacing and cabinet width like this it won't look very good. This spacing is 50 mm and the cabinet width is 700.

If the width is changed to 800 mm then it works.

Or if the width is left at 700 and the spacing is changed to 25 then it works.
