SolidWorks has an array of tools for furniture and cabinet design. With SolidWorks “Weldments”, stock wood sizes for creating frame based geometry can be accomplished quickly, with accurate cut lists. Part Library Features for wood joining methods and Smart components for assembling systems with mechanical fasteners make assembling and specifiying a complete job easy. I would like to share with you several example models and libraries that go along with a webcast that I ran recently. To watch, go to https://www1.gotomeeting.com/register/407230368 and you can the full story on furniture and cabinet design with SolidWorks. Here are the example files that I will be demonstrating during the webcast, uploaded to CAPINC’s 3DContentCentral Site. By the way, you can embed and post models to 3DContentCentral too. The link to the woodworking toolset and files used in the GoToMeeting webcast can be downloaded here.

Hi,
Nice work with the webcast. I tried to download the woodworking toolset and files, but it looks like they have expired from windows live. Any chance of uploading them again? This would be great! Thanks.
