If you go the 20/20 CAD route and want to go to CNC, you will have to buy Smartlister. The key to any program is what you put into it, meaning time.
Ecabinets is an option, but isn't nearly the program, in my opinion. Any good, accurate software program is going to have a steep learning curve and CV does, just like KCDW, etc. I personally own and use CV Solid Manufacturing. We use C'vision and it's deep, takes a lot of setup, a lot of learning. Buy more tools, or take your family on a vacation.

Learn e-cabinets - it's the free brother of Cabinetvision, which is very expensive. Also, no one has said anything about 20/20 manufacturing. I have read up on ecabinets, KCDW, Cabinet Vision and need some further clarification. It's not as robust as A friend of mine has written his own plug-ins for toolpathing in it too, he posts here as well so maybe he'll chime in more about it.I am a one man custom cabinet shop and am in need of software that I can use to design my cabinets, see renderings, make a cut list and be able to modify the way I build my cabinets to fit the cut list.

Basic version is free, but you'll need the full version for exporting to CAM software. But check it out.Īnother really great package to try is Sketchup! It's a really nice little modeler. Might not be your bag of tea tho as while it's easy to get started on it's a very robust program with a lot more features then you might use.

For example, when I model up a space, I get a BOM for free out of it, for everything, even the areas of paint. It's actually called Building Information Modeling, a kinda intelligent CAD. Think of it as intelligent building software, kinda of like your cabinet software but for whole buildings. It's bad because these parts can be hard to make. This is both good and bad, it's good because those parts can be parametric, so that you can change them very, very quickly. So if you don't have the parts you need for what you're doing you've got to model them.
Like I said before, it's Inventor for Architects more or less. However, with that said, Revit is very much a 'kit of parts' kind of modeler. So it may not be as smart as purpose-built cabinet software is, but it well let you model spaces very quickly and at a high level of detail, and then export views of those models (and whole models) to toolpathing software. Revit is a tool for putting buildings and/or interior spaces together. It's really meant to do whole projects mind you, but it really, really shines at certain things. Run through the basic 'getting started' tutorial and that should give you a taste for the software.
Get the 'Building' (soon to be called Architecture) one, not the Structures or Systems one.

Next time we do some 3D we'll use Cut3D, it's way better IMHO.ĭanny: You can download a free 30-day trial of Revit from the Autodesk website. Jack: Those wings were modeled in Blender and then exported to Millwizard for carving. I bet you'd be horrified at the quality of our finishing and such. We're designers with heavy computer chops that got a 'bot so that we could directly fabricate stuff, instead of cabinet makers / millworkers who picked up a 'bot. We came at this whole 'bot thing from the opposite side it looks like you did from looking at your website. We also sometimes draw things up in Adobe Illustrator, and use some Blender for more 3D stuff (which this job so far hasn't had a lot of). We model them in Revit, sometimes live in front of the client, and then we export views from Revit to Artcam Insignia to feed to the 'bot. Seriously though, what do you want to know? We use Autodesk Revit to model the existing space, which we then add our custom elements to. Guess I'll have to find some crazier clients next time. (Well, that and years and years of working in various Architectural and furniture design offices and with Autodesk Revit and other 3D software).Īnd I didn't think this project 'mild'. And this forum is what taught me to do that.
