Hi Ness
Thanks for the emails today.
I am about to make this modular unit of a desk with drawers, a counter and several display units above. Please feel free to laugh at my attempts at adding a TV screen and window I will not take offence.
Whilst the work has been accepted and booked in the client was pretty keen on seeing a few more dimensions pertaining to the inside of the upper display units and TV screen computer area. So as this is not possible on polyboard (although I hope they eventually develop it) can you please send me the DXF files and the sketchup file that I will need to attempt to do this on sketchup.
I don’t have sketch up yet but am downloading the free version as I write this.
A couple of questions Ness about the project. You will notice on the base units Ive added 2 pieces of 18mm MDF to make up the end panels. This is for appearance and matches other fillers etc quite well. I would usually just glue these two pieces together and edge band them to make them look like a single 36mm piece, this saves me buying a whole sheet of 36mm MDf and having loads of waste. Is there anyway in polyboard to make to 2 end panels look like one without effecting the cutting list. I realise i could just change it to 36mm manually for appearance but then I’ve got to remember to change it back.
My second question is
when making bookshelves or the like that have a lot of panels such as shelves I normally cut a spacing jig to aid construction. is there a way to add a spacing jig that would show up on cutting lists but not on the imagery? Prob not but i thought Id ask in case I’m missing something.
Best
Terry
