Build an OND designed cab 'Metropolis'
der_yeti:
Hi,
is it possible to get a cad compatible file of the sidepanels with rounded edges?
like in this Picture:

I want to let the sides cut at a local store.

Anyway - going to move on to the slot cutting for now (for the T-Moulding) - is it just the two sides and the CP sides that have T-Moulding on??
MOsting i'm wondering if the sides of the front panel should have it?

Any place there are bare edges, I would have it.

Thanks. I'm thinking of beveling those edges so may not be bare... I'll have a think
Talking of beveling, I'm planning to do my monitor cut out tomorrow but have a question about the cut and bevel...
Obviously the router is going to give me curved corners both in the cut and the bevel... How do you overcome this to get proper right angles?

Use a chisel.

So, do you leave some excess there, or will the excess left by the router cutting up to the corners be enough? And presumably, I'll need a good non blunt chisel (which means another trip to the shop)

Actually, recently I don't have an issue with the rounded corners - but if I have to square it, I use a chisel.
