I have inputed all of the measurements for my cabinet boxes...However, I am still getting the wrong measurements on my cabinet bottoms and stretchers.
I am using the Euro box.
Example: 36" base cabinet with a dado 1/4" sides.
The bottoms and the stretchers are coming out 35"w, when they should be 34 1/2"w.
What did I forget to do? Or what did I do wrong?

If you have 3/4" sides and a 1/4" dado, then a 35" bottom would be correct, wouldn't it?
36 - .75 - .75 + .25 + .25 = 35

If you want the bottom to come out 34 1/2" then you would need to use a 3/8" dado.
36 - .75 - .75 + .375 + .375 = 34 1/2

Thank you Rob, I was inputting the measurements that my shop told me to do. Then he said that the dimension is incorrect.
I will show him what you said...I am glad it wasn't anything I did... grin
