You will see the layer naming and hierarchy I use.

The easiest way to begin helping you would be for you to download the attached model of a drawer. I have learned a great deal in this process and I can say now that we have a pretty seamless workflow.
Vectric vcarve pro variables trial#
It took several months of trial and error to structure my sketchup models in such a way that they would transfer to Cut2D pro. I originally encountered the same problems as you. and import directly to Cut 2D pro (the little brother of VCarve Pro - but it essentially works the same way). Ps attached are some images of a few of our projects! It seems like Mozaik will cut my CNC programming time in half, but I don’t know if it’s worth it to get over the steep learning curve if we don’t do ONLY cabinetsĭoes anyone have experience with any of these things and can share your insights? Thanks in advance! But I’m sure a ton of people have already encountered this situation and probably come up with good solutions. I was almost thinking about writing my own program that would allow me to create my own variables (like cabinet height, cabinet depth, linking drawer box depth etc…). I think I like this option the best because it gives me total control over the layers etc with none of the extra functions that I will never use. I most recently started learning about dynamic components as a way to make parametric parts, which I can use to create a library of parts that I can draw from. I started working with Cabinetsense and it creates a ton of layers and seems like more than we need. I’m hearing about programs like Mozaik and Cabinetsense. Also the layers in VCarve are weird and not easy to work with.
However this doesn’t tell you what the depth of rabbets / dados / pockets should be. We got VCarve Pro because that allows you to import a Sketchup model, and it gives you a 2D layout of the parts. We just got our first CNC and are trying to figure out the best method to go from Sketchup model to CNC cut parts. We do mainly cabinets that are all variations on a common type of box, but we also get some really random projects. I use Sketchup to model projects for a small, high-end, custom woodworking company.
