Bruce shows the benefits of using the Salice Silentia Overlay Hinge Selector package which makes easy work of picking the correct Salice Silentia hinge....so easy, in fact, it does all the spec'ing for you.

Designed for cabinet refacing ( fitting existing face frame cabinets with new overlay doors ), this widget assigns the proper Salice Silentia 106 degree Overlay soft close hinge given the desired reveals and existing face frame stiles and mullions widths.

I use Report Groups to keep all my reports organized by the departments in my business.  This helps me send reports to those departments that need only specific reports.  And it helps keep my reports organized so I don't spend time searching for a specific report.

For example, I created report groups for each of these departments... Purchasing, Assembly, Shipping, Staging, Customer Service, Milling, Door Department, Estimating, and Engineering.

For most cabinet jobs, off the shelf materials suit us well…3/4” Prefinished Hard Rock Maple, ¾” White Melamine, 13/16” Rift Cut White Oak…for example.  Sourcing these materials from our material vendors is usually as easy as placing an order with the vendor.

Episode 069 of A Cabinet Vision Minute is about setting the Estimate Sheets of Material flag in the Bid Center.  

If you use the Cost-Plus Bid Center or even if you don't use the Cost-Plus Bid Center and you're not using "Catalog Prices" for estimating your cabinet jobs, then watch this video.  This could save you make you thousands of dollars on your next job.
