Title: Cabinet Wizard for Mach3 - Cabinet Drilling and Slot Milling
Post by: kiefer on September 21, 2026, 06:51:05 PM
I would like to introduce Cabinet Wizard, a Mach3 Wizard I developed for CNC machining of cabinet side panels.

The idea is to generate the required G-code directly in Mach3 without using separate CAD/CAM software for common cabinet operations.

Cabinet Wizard currently includes:

Shelf hole drilling
Drawer runner drilling
Blum Tandem 560H and 563H predefined runner patterns
Custom drawer runner patterns
Hinge mounting hole drilling
Rear slot/groove milling
Multiple operations can be combined into a single G-code program
Automatic checks for dimensions, hole positions and possible machining conflicts

The FREE version is fully functional, with the following limits:

Shelf drilling: maximum 8 generated holes
Drawer runner drilling: maximum 8 generated holes
Hinge drilling: maximum 4 generated holes
Slot milling: unlimited
Installation is simple: extract the Cabinet Wizard folder into:
C:\Mach3\Addons\
Wizard -> Pick Wizard -> Cabinet Wizard

I have been using Mach3 for many years and developed this Wizard around the way I actually work with CNC cabinet parts. I would appreciate feedback from other Mach3 users, particularly if you find any problems or have questions about using it.

Cabinet Wizard v1.01
Updated installation with corrected licensing path for future FULL-version activation.
No changes to the Cabinet Wizard functions or FREE-version limits.

Please use v1.01 for new installations.
