Re: Cabinet furniture design tools workbench

Unfortunately in my country the companies cutting laminated chipboard don't want to deal with amateurs. They prefer woodworking shops (however small) and big furniture companies. There is not so bad at Poland yet. In Poland you can go to DIY store and just say you want for example two 300 mm x 400 ...

Re: Cabinet furniture design tools workbench

The problem is that the pricing policies of many of the desktop/web software that I tried are not oriented towards amateurs/end customers/hobbyists - the price has to be reasonable for a single cabinet or for a limited number of pieces. This is what I was thinking when I was trying to design my fir...

Re: Cabinet furniture design tools workbench

Get well soon - and your parents too. My Dad had heart attack and bypass in 2018 and after it was walking normally. Now he is too old and too sick and probably won't survive the next COVID or bigger cold. My Mom is prescribed anticoagulants to dissolve clots in the heart, and then she will undergo ...

Re: Cabinet furniture design tools workbench

This Christmas has been hard for me. Before Christmas I fell on the stairs and injured my right hand, I used my thumb to support myself when I fell and I had a Zimmer on. Additionally, I had COVID and back pain. My father (84) got COVID, because he had a heart attack and bypass before, he was hospit...

Re: Cabinet furniture design tools workbench

Not sure I was clear. I believe the ability to have multiple grains on a panel is a bug. If the user is more mature he/she should know it is rather not possible in real-life to have multiple grain per face. Please open issue at github if you really feel this should be avoided and why you think like...

Re: Cabinet furniture design tools workbench

It is possible to set a face to H grain, V Grain and No Grain, all at the same time. No, and I am not sure if this is possible in real-life to have piece of wood with different grain direction at the same face. The grain direction is recorded here and I use little trick to make it possible: https:/...
