Tool Functions
This extension is a VERY robust cabinet maker.
This cabinet maker extension allows you to create multiple different kinds of cabinets, including base, upper, corner, tall, and refrigerator cabinets.
Just about every part and piece of the cabinets is adjustable, including size, number of doors, drawers, materials, styles, shelves, trim, hardware, and other pieces as well.
As you mouse over different options, the extension graphically shows what will be adjusted, allowing for full control over every part of your cabinets.
One of the great things about this extension is the ease of which you can go back and change cabinets. Simply right click on a cabinet and select the “edit cabinet” option, then adjust the options you’d like to change and click “ok”.
One of the other big plusses of this extension is its ability to export full reports, some of which are compatible with professional material layout tools like Cut List Plus.
This is obviously a professional level extension, with professional level functionality. If you do a lot of interiors, or if you do any kind of cabinet making, this extension is for you!
