Hi,

To complete Michel’s answer, you can set the chamfer option to ignore in PostPro.

Hi Caroline,

 

The part is outputted on its largest geometry. So, in fact, you are going to cut it square as the CNC is not able to cut an angle. You can look in your documents afterwards as your angles get indicated so that you can cut these angles manually after the CNC cutting.

 

regards

Hi, 

 

Hope this video helpful,

Remember, if the door is included in the total dimension, to include it in the cabinet dimension. 

This will then also increase the start of the slope

For example, with an 18mm door and a 2mm slack in depth, the start of the slope would be 190+20 = 210mm

 

Cheers, Alex
