Hey woodworkers! This is a small cabinet that I designed explicitly to fit under my CNC machine. I wanted to do a crazy texture on the drawer fronts, and settled on this voronoi texture design which I created in Blender. The wood to make this was all "free" from my property, which means it is a softwood fir and pine (that's mostly what we have in the Lake Tahoe area of California). After the front was designed in Blender, I imported the STL into Fusion 360 to generate all the toolpaths. The cabinet itself was designed in Fusion, along with the dovetailed drawers. I used my vertical work table on the Avid CNC to cut the dovetails. This is mostly a CNC woodworking project. Feel free to download a copy of the files and make something similar!

Cabinet: https://www.corbinsworkshop.com/shop/... These are the Fusion 360 files, and the parametric Blender file I used to create the front design. I also exported the Blender design as an OBJ in case you want to just play with the model.
Dovetail Drawers: https://www.corbinsworkshop.com/shop/... Fusion 360 file these are parametric, and the drawer and dovetail parameters can easily be modified. This file has all my toolpaths for doing the dovetails.
