Hello all,
As it turns out my shop is more or less a furniture building outfit these days and I am not setup so well for producing typical bookshelf/carcass construction.
I just got a sort of rare cabinet job on a boat with a residential like runs of base cabinets with lots of doors, drawers and shelves.
Soooo..
Cheap seats way to setup for cup hinges and shelf pin holes?
I sold off the hinge drilling machine I had in the shop as it was not seeing any use and I never have been setup for gang drilling for shelf pins.
Are there any reasonably small machines for hinges or just find a Blum press type?
Gang drilling for shelves?
I should have kept the damn hinge boring machine but it was a big machine and collecting dust..
I guess I can just inlet steel shelf standards and skip the pins if I need to though the rest of boat has pins.
Edit-
looking about here is a good dodge I didn't know about for the shelves:
Shelf standard makes superior step-and-repeat drilling jig
I have to do 20 shelf uprights so that wouldn't be too painful..
(and no- I am still no CNC router in shop..)
Thanks
