Soooooo since no one is mentioning building something I'll mention the
POS I built last week.

First off this is for a good customer that ordered an IKEA toy box. I
got to build it and cut a hole in it.

The roll out drawer holds a cat litter box and needed a hole for
entering and exiting.

Here is where I got to use my Shaper Origin again for a paying job!

So I built the %&^((($%$###$****** box with the included plastic fasteners.

Then I cut the hole!!!!

No computer design for the CNC work. The on board software, on the
Origin, let me establish the X,Y axis on the drawer front, dial in the
proper offset, cut the size rectangle I want, and add a radius to all
corners. SIMPLE!

If you did not cut the hole would the cat be alive or dead in the box?


Schrödinger teaches us that an object made by Ikea and a piece of furniture
can not exist in the same space at the same time.




I will attest that IKEA style furniture is absolutely intended to be
built in close proximity to where it will eventually remain.

This stuff does not do well being moved from one location to another.
Moving to another home and the stuff will have issues.
