Single Workbench for Cabinet Design

Post by jmchawkins »

I am wondering if one of the work benches is particularly suited for cabinet design?

There appears to be a lot to learn and I would like to focus my efforts.

Hi Craig and welcome; I'd start with Part Design and Sketcher Work Benches (WBs). Eventually you'll probably want to (or need to) use some tools from other WBs though. You also might want to try the SpreadSheet WB too so you can change, say, the cabinet width and then have the doors and back panel update automatically if your use is going to be repetitive.

also SheetMetal WB may be useful (it is an add-on WB)
