Introduction
Making furniture is a very rewarding past time, and with specialised woodworking
tools being reasonably priced these days, it becomes easier to tackle bigger projects.
And the great thing about making furniture is that from simple bedside cupboards or
book shelves, to large entertainment centres, cupboard construction is similar. This
also applies to tables.
However, all projects start with a design which can be time consuming.
The pain with any design is producing the drawing, calculating the cutting dimensions,
and working out how to cut the components from sheet material. Its also hard to
visualise how the furniture will look when finished, especially when you apply what if.
What if I make the cupboard a bit higher, or wider? What gaps do I get if I add an
extra shelf?
The repetition involved in the furniture design process has lead to the development of
the Basic Furniture Design software, which greatly reduces the design and assembly
time, and promotes accuracy.
The Software
The Basic Furniture Design software assists woodworkers and cabinet makers with
designing BASIC rectangular cupboards, corner cupboards and tables. Door and
drawer modules are included, and a sheet cutting layout module assists with
determining the lay out of components on sheet material. The software is specifically
suited to the DIY or Hobbyist woodworker, but is also used by businesses and schools.
However, there is no support provided for commercial use since the software is not a
production system.
Businesses generally use the software to produce a quick initial design, and then use
CAD to produce the production details. Some businesses simply use the Sheet Layout
module only.
Schools use the software to help students easily design simple projects. Some
students find it difficult to decide on a project, or are lacking in CAD skills to produce
the plan. The software can assist with teaching students the design process: design
concepts, material selection, assembly methods, workshop plan, bill of materials, etc.
The software will run on PCs with Windows 98SE and upwards. However the 3D
Viewer requires MS DirectX 9 to work properly, and a compatible graphics adapter
with 32 Mb memory. On the Downloads Page of the website you can download the
Test3D file to your computer which allows you to test the 3D Viewer. You must copy
the file to a temporary folder on your computer, then when you run it, it will unzip the
executable and supporting files. Then you simply run the unzipped executable.
Pressing the F1 key in the 3D Viewer will display the Help file.
The software allows designs to be easily created because you simply enter dimensions
Overview
for each component, and make allowances for rebates and clearances. This is unlike
CAD software were you have to add and position parts on the drawing. Of course,
using CAD has the flexibility to allow you to design anything, but is much more
involved.
The software attempts to allow for standard construction methods, but there will be
times where your construction method is different. In this situation, you will need to
take this into consideration separately, however most of the calculations will still
provide the overall design construction, thus providing a guide in the workshop.
At first glance it might appear that you can only design the simplest of furniture.
However the software is flexible, allowing you to design furniture in modules, which
can then be joined together to form the final piece. For example, you can use the
Table Design to make the leg base for a cupboard, and the Cupboard Design for the
cupboard that will be connected to the base. Another example is designing a buffet
hutch, where the bottom base unit is a cupboard, and the top is a shelf unit that will
be connected after construction.
The software does not design framed construction, only flat panel. However, if you
wish to have cupboard sides that are rail and stile, simply use the Door/Panel Design
to calculate the components, and replace the flat sides with the panel during
construction.
The software uses metric dimensions (mm), but imperial dimensions (inches) can be
entered through the aid of a popup conversion dialog, and printed.
The rest of this document shows sample screens of various parts of the
application. You should also download the Help File from the Downloads page
of the web site for more information.
Overview
Rectangular Cupboards
There are so many cupboards that fall into this furniture category that it is probably
the most used design in the software.
Some examples are: Book shelves, bedside cabinets, wardrobes, buffets, vanity units,
shaving cabinets, linen cupboards, display units, entertainment units, and any other
type of storage cupboards.
With some imagination, by combining multiple designs you can make cupboards on
legs and cupboards with shelf units on top.
The following pictures show the layout and options available in the Cupboard Design
screen.
Picture 1.1 The Cupboard Design screen showing options for the Top
Generally, all Design screens are similar in layout and the first area you notice is the
Drawing Area. The drawing is updated by the software based on the dimensions
entered and selected options. You cannot change this drawing using the mouse - it is
not CAD.
Below the drawing is where you enter the overall dimensions of the cupboard, and
would be the first dimensions you enter.
Overview
Below the cupboard dimensions is a series of buttons. These buttons allow for easy
location of the components you want to change, and create a logical flow for working
through the design. You simply start from the Top and click each button in order until
you get to the Other Bits. As you can see, the software is designed to be easy to use,
even by people with limited computer experience.
As you click these buttons, the area on the right of the screen displays the relevant
dimensions and options that can be entered for that part. In picture 1.1 you see the
cupboard Top is displayed. All you need to do is work your way down the list,
changing dimensions and selecting options as you go, and the drawing will be
updated accordingly. You might need to refer to the Help file for more information on
each option, which can be accessed by pressing the F1 key. There is also quick
information that can be displayed by clicking on the i icon .
The following pictures show the dimensions and options currently available for each
cupboard part.

Overview
Picture 1.3 Cupboard - Rail Options
Picture 1.4 Cupboard - Shelf Options
One point to make is that doors and drawers are not calculated automatically during
the design process. Doors and drawers must be designed separately to produce a
cutting list. There are two main reasons for this. First, there are too many dimensions
and options to display during the cupboard design process, and second, you should
always confirm the door and drawer opening dimensions after the cupboard is
assembled.
However, if you will have doors on the cupboard, you must allow for doors in the
cupboard design screen. This is so that - especially for inset doors, the shelf widths
are reduced to allow the door to sit in the recess. Picture 1.5 shows where you adjust
shelf gaps, and specify the position of doors and drawers. This is the first step in
Overview
allowing for doors.
The dimensions in Picture 1.5 show the shelf

gaps for the left and right side of the cupboard.
You change these dimensions to set the gaps as
required.
To set the position of doors and drawers you
click the rectangles and squares located on
each side of the shelf gap. Doors positions are
set using the rectangles on the left and can
span shelves, drawers are the squares on the
right and are positioned within the shelf gap.
Picture 1.5 Cupboard - Shelf Gap and Door/Drawer Position Options
The second step in allowing for doors is to actually tick the option Allow for door/s
and drawers in the Doors Area. This is shown in Picture 1.6.
Picture 1.6 Cupboard - Door/Drawer Allowance Options
The Show/Hide Doors button simply allows you to show doors and drawers on the
drawing and in the 3D Viewer. It provides the option to hide them so that the drawing
Overview
is clearer when concentrating on the carcass only, but they are still allowed for in the
calculations.
Picture 1.7 Cupboard The 3D view showing Doors hidden and shown.
The Door Frame dimensions shown in Picture 1.6 is where you specify how far the
door is recessed into the cupboard. This is used to calculate the reduction in shelf
width to accommodate the door. You simply enter the door thickness, and then
specify how far the door protrudes from the cupboard (the Lip Height).

Overview
The area called Other Bits (Picture 1.12 below) allows you to save and print extra
notes about the design, and set a 3D position for the cupboard in the 3D Viewer. The
3D position is used to view multiple units that make up the completed furniture. For
example, if you had a base cupboard unit that is 900 mm high and a shelf unit that
will sit on top, then the 3D position for the base will be zero, and the position for the
shelves will be 919 mm (assuming the Top was 19 mm thick). When you add the two
designs to the 3D Viewer, the shelves will be shown on top of the base.
An example of multiple designs shown as one
cupboard is shown in Picture 1.13 below.
Picture 1.12 Cupboard - Comments and 3D

Positioning Options
The 3D Viewer is started by clicking the 3D button located on the toolbar of the
Design window.
The viewer is a separate program

and does not need to be closed
during a session. This allows you to
switch between design windows and
display different furniture designs
together. For example, you can go
into the Table design and load a
table, then go into the Cupboard
design and add [3D+] a cupboard to
the viewer (say positioned on top of
the table).
This is handy when designing large
scale projects such as built-in wall
units.

Overview
When printing a design, you can choose to save the cutting list to a file which can be
imported into the Sheet Layout module. All printing is shown in a Preview window
first, then you can choose to send the preview to the printer from there. The print
options are shown in Picture 1.14.

Overview
Corner Cupboards
The Corner Cupboard design allows for four styles (shapes) of corner cupboards as
shown.
There are numerous methods of constructing corner cupboards, and the software
attempts to provide as many options as possible to accommodate individual
requirements. It is possible that some manual allowances will need to be made in the
workshop during construction. However, if you keep the construction of corner
cupboards as simple as possible, the cutting list produced should be all that is needed.
Since corner cupboard components are more complex to cut, the software shows part
diagrams on the cutting list. Although not to scale, the diagrams show all necessary
dimensions and angles. All angles are calculated at 45 and 90, so you cannot make
the back angle suit a corner that is not 90.
You are able to display a top view cross section showing cupboard dimensions to
assist with construction (Picture 2.1).

Sometimes it is difficult to work out the dimensions for a corner cupboard. The
dimension calculator shown in Picture 2.3 allows you to enter the depth and side
width, and shows you the results for all other dimensions. If you want the Back to be
a determining factor, you can enter the Back Width and re-calculate the dimensions.
The results can be transferred to the design screen.
12
Overview
Picture 2.3 The Corner Cupboard Dimension Calculator
If you dont want the pointed back corner, or need a post to connect rails and
panelling to, then the cupboard can have a support post. There are a few support post
options depending on how you want to construct the cupboard.
The post can be calculated to sit on the outside of the cupboard which means you will
fix it to the back, or be positioned inside the cupboard so the back is fixed to the post.
Also the post can be run past the bottom shelf to the floor, or, in the case of a wall
mounted corner cupboard, the post can sit on the bottom shelf.
This option is shown in Picture 2.4 below.
13
Overview
Picture 2.4 The Corner Cupboard - Back Options
The design can include rails as shown in Picture 2.5 below, but are only calculated to
sit within the carcass. This will suit most requirements.
Picture 2.5 The Corner Cupboard - Rail Options
The following picture shows an example of a corner cupboard in the 3D Viewer. The
design has a back support post and rails at the front and back.
14
Overview
Picture 2.6 A Corner Cupboard in the 3D Viewer
One final point about the corner cupboards is that face frames are not allowed for. If
your design needs a face frame then you should first design the main carcass
(possibly reducing the depth by the face frame thickness), then work out the face
frame requirements manually.
15
Overview
Tables
The Table design allows for a number of styles of tables, which is mainly due to the
ability to select different bottom rail options.
Some examples are: Basic table, table with bottom shelf, table with stretcher, hall
tables and stands.
The following picture shows the Table Design screen and the Rail options available.
Picture 3.1 The Table Design screen showing Rail Options
Some of the options for rails are shown in Picture 3.2 below.

Overview
Picture 3.2 The Table Design - Rail Options
A shelf can be allowed for as shown in Picture 3.3.

The width and depth is calculated to fit flush with the
outside of the rails.

The following picture shows an example of a table in the 3D Viewer. The design has a
bottom end rails with a centre rail acting as a stretcher.

Overview
Doors
The Door design is a separate module so to speak, and is not linked to the Cupboard
and Corner Cupboard designs. It simply allows you to produce a cutting list based on
your style and fitting requirements.
The software will calculate inset, lipped, and overlay doors. However, you must know
what clearances are required for the hardware you will use. Picture 4.1 shows the
layout of the Doors Design screen.
Picture 4.1 The Door Design screen
18
Overview
All panels in the door are calculated to be the same size, that is, evenly spaced.
The Door design can be used to produce a cutting list for any framed panel, not only
doors. For example, you might have designed a cupboard that has all drawers in one
section, and used shelves to separate each drawer in the design. However when you
make the cupboard, you will replace these shelves dust panels instead. All you need
to do is make panels the same size as the shelves, as shown in the Picture 4.2 below.
Picture 4.2 The Door Design used for other panels
19
Overview
Drawers
The Drawer design is a separate module like the Door design, and not linked to the
Cupboard and Corner Cupboard designs. It simply allows you to produce a cutting list
based on your style and fitting requirements.
The software will calculate inset, lipped, and overlay drawers. However, you must
know what clearances are required for the hardware you will use. Picture 5.1 shows
the layout of the Drawers Design screen.
Picture 5.1 The Drawer Design screen
There are two variations in the construction of the drawer.

1. The drawer face is screwed to the drawer box.
2. The drawer face is the front of the drawer box.
This is selected by ticking or unticking the Use as Front checkbox shown next to the
face thickness textbox in the Picture above.

Overview
6 Materials
The software includes a simple Materials file that is used to assist with pricing a
project.
Materials can be entered as per metre, per foot, per square metre, or each, and you
can set two price levels for each record. All materials must belong to a species and
group, so some thought must be given to how you will set up a new material range.
The sizes entered are finished sizes.
The data maintenance screen for Materials is shown in Picture 6.1 below.
Picture 6.1 The Materials screen
When you select materials in a design (by clicking the Materials icon
next to the
part), the software will select the closest size that you can use for the part. For
example, if your rails are 65 x 19 mm pine, and you have the material size as 70 x 19
mm, the software will calculate the price from the 70 x 19 record (it finds 70 mm as
the closest width). However, one important point to make is that the thickness must
match the material (eg the 19 mm).
21
Overview
7 Sheet Cutting Layout

The software includes a Sheet Cutting Layout module to help you plan how to cut the
parts from sheet material. The software does not automatically work out how to cut
the sheet, but allows you to add parts to the sheet and move them around. Although
its function is quite basic, it is surprisingly useful and saves a lot of time.
The module is a separate program and should not be run while youre in a design. You
should do all the design work first, then from the printouts, run the sheet cutting
module and lay out your cutting requirements.
When you start the program, you are asked to enter the maximum sheet size to be
used, and specify the saw blade allowance (kerf). This is shown in Picture 7.1.
Picture 7.1 The Sheet Size and Kerf selection screen
The Picture 7.2 below shows the main screen, with the sheet on the left side, and the
parts on the right. You simply add the parts (which will be shown on the right side of
the screen), and then drag them onto the sheet on the left. The parts can be moved
and rotated, then snapped into position using the arrow buttons.
If you saved the cutting list when printing any of the designs, you can import the
parts into the Sheet module without re-keying them. This Import screen is shown in
Picture 7.2.
