Jim,

I recalled a nice article for a Step Tansu chest with exploded diagram from Canadian Woodworking Magazine that might be of interest: https://canadianwoodworking.com/project/step-tansu/

Thank for creating this gadget. I have been wanting to make some cabinets for awhile. I downloaded the gadget but even renaming the file extension it is not allowing me to install it. I get "failed to extract the vgadget archive."

I've not ever seen that particular error?
Have you loaded Gadgets before? I have seen where the person has not have "Display file Extension" in Microsoft File Explorer. You must be turned on in order to rename the ".zip" file extension to the ".vgadget"

Let me know if that helps?
Thanks,
Jim

Thanks I did rename it to included the .vgadget still did not work. I pasted it into the gadgets folder in public under vcarvepro and that did not work either. I also have tried your "TestGadget" and that worked fine. For some reason the dovetail gadget will not install either.

I am not sure what causing that error. I made a few updates, so please try version 12.0 and see if you're still getting the error.

I've been going through the Easy Cabinet Gadget code in great detail. I have a new version of the EasyCabinetMakerVer12.0 gadget with a number of new features.

New Features:
1. Added the ability to build the cabinet with or without face frames (American/European style cabinets)
2. Spelling errors
3. Updated help files

Supports:
Vectric Aspire and V Carve Pro versions 10+

Next Steps:
1. Make a YouTube video on how to use this gadget

Any issues or request?

Hi Jim. I have version 9.5 so it does not work with older versions?

Let me review my GetHub repository for older code releases to see what version will work with Vectric 9.5. If I find one, I will update it and post it as supporting version Vectric 9.5.
Thanks,
Jim
