Apparently there is a picture problem at the moment.

Here are the files I used to cut my practice 6 inch drawers. I have included a how to file so you can sort of see the method to my madness.
If anyone would like.stl files for different drawer sizes let me know and I can generate them for you. It only takes a few minutes and I will probably need them down the road anyway.
I am also open to any suggestions on how to improve the process as well.

Just a quick follow-up to my 'How to file'. I expressed concerns about inconsistences which I thought were due to numeric rounding and the numbers I listed worked on my system and may not work on other systems. I changed my computer on the weekend due a file loading issue which I think is related to Windows 8. I cut a drawer to night with the new computer and the roughing toolpath numbers are out and need to be adjusted slightly.

Thank you JoDy
I downloaded the files and will have a look at them in the morning when my brain is reasonably fresh :)
7:30pm here.

JoDy I would like you vector files for the half blind dovetails. On your last posting on this discussion you said you couldn't attach your .crv files. Would you email the files to me if I send you my email address?
