I’m planning my first set of cabinets now. I’ve used Cabinet Planner to create the layout and exported DXFs to EstlCAM. The DXF settings by default were kind of annoying for layout purposes (i.e. rabbet/dado overcuts) but I figured out how to optimize them a little better for my needs.
I will report back in the forum once I have cabs built end-to-end with how it all went.
Since I normally use a table saw to cut my cabinet parts, I will just be using the router to Cut the 2-D parts from the plywood or MDF or particleboard. Since I’m using this method, I use light burn to make my DXF files of the parts. Then I import them into estlcam and creat my tool paths. Then save as gcode. Import into webui and run job.
You can draw your things in: fusion 360, autocad, SketchUp, lightburn, vectric aspire, vectric others software or any cad software and just save or export your drawing to dxf and import that into estlcam
Just use the software workflow you are the most knowledgeable. If using SketchUp here’s the trick vefore exporting to dxf: Parallel view, top view and please erase the standing model placed next to the origin.
I’ve been playing with the cam side of 360 a little bit the past week. It seems that, just like the cad side, it’s a beast of a program. It does a really nice job at rendering the preview. It shows material left after each pass, making it much easier to visualize what will actually happen instead of just a blue line going in circles.
