I'm scrapping this project in favor of a different workflow (OpenCABINATE). I've found that a majority of this design can be easily replicated in the LCInterlocking Workbench. Therefore, I've decided to phase this project out while documenting a similar build with the aforementioned workbench. The goal will be to cover the knowledge gap for building a similar design from start-to-finish, along with pre-fabs & additional resources. These files will remain for the sake of posterity.
Adjustable storage dresser designed in FreeCAD. Design inspired by a drawing found on 3axis.co, created by YOANN.
The aim of this project is to make a CAD file with all necessary shapes to make a storage dresser & drawers. Additional goals are:
- Adjustable for all material thicknesses.
- Fully automated tab depth adjustment (changing material thickness changes tab depth by default).
- All dimensions kept in an associated spreadsheet for easy adjustment & repurposing.
- Shapes should hold true under any input dimension.
- All fitment features (such as tab width & drawer depth) should automatically
be calculated from:
- Dresser Height
- Dresser Width
- Dresser Depth
- Drawer Height
- Drawer Width
- Drawer Count Up
- Drawer Count Across
- Fix "Dresser Side" sketch so that it conforms to the rest of the dresser solid dimensions.
- Finish adding all relavant constraints to all solids, re-adding or removing constraints as necessary.
- Clean up spreadsheet calculations (remove redundancy).
- Confirm placement of each solid is calculated through its neighbor, in such a way that changing dimensions doesn't shift parts closer (or further away) from its neighbor.
- Tie drawer number to some kind of array mechanism, so that shelf count & dresser width can be added through the spreadsheet.
