As I talk with cabinet manufacturers all over the country, I get mixed up in a lot of discussions about this feature of Cabinet Vision or that feature of Cabinet Vision. In just the last two weeks, I've had quite a few inquiries about xBidding. I'm not sure why. But from my perspective, there seems to be a sudden surge in interest in using the Bid Center.
Back in the day, and I'm not quite certain how long ago that was, the state of the art measuring tool for laying out a room full of cabinets was the "storey pole" or some called them layout rods or storey rods. Whatever the proper name for them really was, they were essentially two long sticks of softwood which the cabinet maker made pencil marks on. With four sides of a square set of rods, a cabinet maker could layout a whole house full of cabinets...one room on each side of the rod...uppers on one edge of a side and bases on the opposite edge of the rod.
As a very small business in a huge industry that is rich with the warmest people you'd ever want to come know, it's kinda hard to draw a real distinction between friends and clients and vendors. I'd like to announce the addition of a few new clients and friends of Craftsman Woodworks Engineering Services.
