Cabinets for the Garage....

[mitchjr]

I finally painted the garage after 6 years of building my house. I just wanted to see if anyone had some cabinet files they would share with me. I want to hang them up along the walls. I really do not care about size. I am just going to cut out as many as I can hang. I wanted to use 3/4" cabinet grade plywood. This would just save me some time on the designing.

Thanks......

Mitch: My cabinet files are designed for using a 5mm bit and I only cut the sides on the bot. You can download the free version of cabinet parts pro. and do the job with a 1/4" bit and cut all parts. You can then size them however you want. If you want files from me e-mail me and I will let you know what I have ready to go. I can toolpath for 1/4"bit in a minute or two so no big deal.

Mitch: If you send me the spacifics on what you need, quantity and size, I'll send you the files.

I very seldom even draw a cabinet component any more. I wrote a file, that uses my ever so clunky menu systems, to input variables that allow you to profile cut, dado, drill for hinges, draw slides and assembly screws for any rectangular cabinet part. Input takes less than 2 minutes. I also have ones that cut & install pocket screws, Hafele lever legs, hanging slots and screw slots. You are welcome to test it(them).

Be aware that all the drill files are brand specific and written for a drill, not router.

Hi Gary
I am courious about the files you wrote,
i also make cabinets i have made files for top and bottom cabinet sides with the shelf holes, and holes for conformat screws.
but i have no way to input variables for different sizes. i have been looking for some way of getting this done.
hoping you can share some information on this with me.
thanks paul

Hi Gary,

You mentioned Hafele. I've been designing some cabinets and would love to use Hafele hardware. What's a good source for these without buying 1000 piece boxes?

Thanks

Dave, I am just about to start using my bot in the next month or two doing cabinets so I would like to talk and check out your files.

Send me an email with a phone # (put shopbot in the subject line so it gets thru) to: islaww(at)comcast(dot)net and we can talk about it

Jim...
from Hafela US. You need to open a professional account there (just the usual stuff, tax ID# etc) and the you can order online. They ship fast and I havn't run into any ridiculous minumums. http://www.hafele.com/us/

Hi Gary,

Any hope for non-professionals needing to acquire Hafele hardware?

I don't have a tax id but I do have 11 closets I want to build melamine organizers for on the 'bot and the only way to go is with those hangers and modular connector fittings.

Thanks
Jim
