What is a "2-2-2" Base Cabinet?
Examples of a 2-2-2 Base Cabinet
A "2-2-2" can be any cabinet with two (2) openings on the left, center and right side of the cabinet. By adjusting the overall width and height of the cabinet openings, you can create dozens of cabinet derivatives from this standard 2-2-2 configuration. Save all your customized models in the "My 3D Models" library folder for use on any of your future projects.
Trial Free Kitchen Cabinet Design Software with Cutlist
An industry leading kitchen cabinetry design software with cut list for building kitchen cabinets
The 3D modeling in CabinetVIEW is intended for visualization (overall cabinet concept, design, and layout), while CabinetCRUNCHER is a cabinet cut list calculator and cabinet estimator and project cost calculator. For example, if you were to design and build a set of kitchen cabinets, you might start by building a room cabinet layout in SketchUp and add cabinet geometry using 3D software models for face frame or frameless cabinets from the CabinetVIEW library, or you could use any other cabinet design software you choose - even pencil and paper! In most cases, the cabinetmaker would not worry about modeling all the intricate cabinet construction details of each individual cabinet (or you could if desired, but for many cabinetmakers,that would be a waste of time since most cabinets are simple structures that are mostly repeated). Once the overall kitchen cabinet project layout/design is decided and it's time to begin construction, the cabinetmaker would use CabinetCRUNCHER as a cabinetry calculator to establish the detailed construction requirements for each cabinet and use the power of Excel to compile the cutlists and material requirements for the entire project. Discover why CabinetCRUNCHER cabinet software is one of the industry's best kitchen cabinet making software apps for cabinet manufacturing and kitchen cabinet cost estimator for custom cabinet design, cabinet cutting lists, cabinet cost estimating, cabinet material calculator for plywood, cabinet board foot calculator, door size calculator and drawer box calculator for cabinetry and woodworking furniture projects.
The primary benefit of 3D modeling is to enable you to visualize your project prior to construction. Depending on your needs, you can construct 3D models that show a layout of all your cabinets in a room setting, or you can resolve basic cabinet construction issues by building a very detailed model showing actual cabinet joinery. In many cases, the cabinets in your project will use similar construction techniques; therefore, we do not recommend that you spend too much time trying to be very precise all the details in your modeling. For example, once you've settled on your cabinet layout, and you've decided on your basic cabinet construction preferences, you probably will use the same basic cabinet construction for each cabinet in your project. Let's say that you are building a set of kitchen cabinets. Since most of your base and wall cabinets will be built in a very similar fashion, it would not be productive to create exact detailed construction models for each and every cabinet. This would be very time-consuming. Those details can be easily established using CabinetCRUNCHER.
Your time and materials are expensive. CabinetVIEW and CabinetCRUNCHER will help you to get organized, save time and eliminate costly mistakes.
SketchUp is a powerful yet easy-to-learn 3D software tool that combines a simple, yet robust tool-set with an intelligent drawing system that streamlines and simplifies 3D design. Based on our experience, SketchUp is the ideal choice for producing 3D models for cabinetmaking and general woodworking projects.
SketchUp can be downloaded for FREE. Once the software has been downloaded, we encourage you to get familiar with the software. Once you understand the basic SketchUp concepts and tools, we are confident that you will discover that SketchUp is an excellent solution for creating models of your custom cabinets and woodworking projects.
