      On your last question, a picture would help to explain what you mean about taking off a "layer". Are you trying to do the miter with a follow-me? Doable. Probably not a video on "Miters" in general, as it is pretty easy and many methods. The question is what would fit your question? What's the specific question? Someone might even make a video.

          You should build models as you would build them in real life. So treat the various pieces as different pieces of wood.
          Your unit can be broken down to
          Top and bottom (1 component flipped to make second) Blue
          Ends (1 component flipped to make second) Red
          Dividers (1 component arrayed to make 5) Green
          Draw body (1 component arrayed to make 6) Yellow
          Draw front.(1 component arrayed to make 6) Pink
          And I guess a back but I didn't bother.

          Because they are all single rectangles, you can simply give them thickness, draw a diagonal at the corner and use that as a follow me profile to make your mitres.

          You probably need to learn how the inferencing system works and how components separate and allow you to repeat geometry.

          Follow me cannot split its direction, so it won't make a 3 joint corner.

            Incredible how you guys respond...
            @Gilles: Will take a look at it today. Thanks.
            @Box: Very helpfull, will take a look at what you mentioned: "You probably need to learn how the inferencing system works and how components separate and allow you to repeat geometry." I'll try and find some tutorials on the inferencing system...

            @pbacot: By a layer I meant just one part of the closet, for examle one side...

            I'll let you alle know how I proceed using all advices...

            Again, thanks!
