  • In this episode of CNC Basecamp, we are making a Mid-Century credenza. Mid-Century style is great fun to work with. By combining solid wood, plywood, and your CNC router, you can make a piece of furniture that’s perfect for the home office, family room or anywhere needing some practical storage and Mid-Century energy.

    Nice project and I like the joints. Shouldn't the finger pulls be ay the outer edges and not the center?
    That left door cannot be slid very far with the finger pull.

    Mr. Fitch, very nice work. It is good to see people making furniture. You may recall my distaste for "dog bones" but you hid them well, I like it.

      Actually, if you look at the lip in the leg that the carcass sits on, there is a dog bone which shows on the outside of the finished piece. It is rather offputting when one could easily chisel said corners square. That set me to thinking about all the screws on the inside... which left me thinking about assemblies which come out of a box and often treated as disposable. They are not traditional furniture.
      Maybe in a follow-up, one of the segments will be on how to cover screw heads and handwork to eliminate dog bones from view.

    Timing belts also have a gearing advantage.
    The faster you run a stepper motor the less torque you have

    You say don't use a downcut on thinner materials, just a flat cut. Why not start with a downcut and finish with an upcut? Sure its more work? But if it going to save you time trying to fix the mess afterwards surely its worth it.

    I had to come back for a bit of a take away .... his tolerance for mating pieces is 0.003" Those rules of thumb are hard to come by .... I just cut a bunch of dados to match the plywood I had. With out double checking here I did .005 increments .... yup even the .005 appeared a bit sloppy. So for now .003 is my new gap ... and this is total gap so 50% per side

      Apparently I still had it as "Unlisted" here on CZcams but posted it on our website. Thanks for the heads up. It's live now: czcams.com/video/VuAg1CKmqlA/video.html
