Blind corners
Post by rogers on Feb 17th, 2010, 4:32pm

In elevation view,When you add a blind corner cabinet to the next wall or previous wall,the the cabinet end shows up 23 1/4 instead of 24. I usually build my face frame the size of the total cabinet.Is there a way to change the face frame or at least have the end measurement show up 24. whew!!! don't know if anyone can understand this question but i'll give it a try.

Do you set the "blind end width" to zero for these? That should get the faceframe a little closer to coming out correct.

If that's what you do I should be able to check for it and then draw the cabinet at full depth on the adjacent wall.


Edit: nevermind, I just tried it and the doors/drawers would be wrong.

I set my blind end width to 24,the main thing I was trying to do was have the return on the next wall show up 24 instead of 23 1/4.I have been adding a 3/4 filler on the next wall, but all the measurements get kind of busy.But I love the program just trying to work a few kinks. Thanks.

I think the best way to fix this would be to add an option for a full width face frame. But, I've never built a blind cabinet like this. Can you send me a photo or drawing of how you build yours, with an explanation of how to designate where the stile would be located on the blind end of the cabinet.

Thanks Rob,but thats okay I thought there might be something simple I was just overlooking.It works just fine the way it is.
