| SketchList 3D is designed specifically for the woodworking process, using virtual boards to build projects, greatly reducing the time required to design furniture and cabinetry. | ![]() |
SketchList 3D is easy to use because it works with ideas, concepts,
and techniques you already know.
The first concept is that, most generally, furniture and cabinets are built and designed with boards of some type -- not lines, rectangles or squares. Boards consist of materials and occupy 3D space. Boards are put together and create assemblies. In turn projects are collections of assemblies of boards.
In addition to commonly used computer techniques, SketchList 3D took several common woodworking processes and construction techniques and built them in as automated functions.
SketchList 3D uses what you already know about computers and woodworking to help you be more efficient, productive, profitable, and creative in your work.
NOTE: These videos are limited in size by screen size, file size, and resolution factors.
When designing with SketchList 3D, users can use a large sized monitor and have the Main form,
the 2D and 3D forms open at the same time. This provides instant feedback on design changes.
The following videos will show you how the basic elements of SketchList 3D are used to quickly and efficiently design a bookcase.

The question is then how to best manage and manipulate the boards. SketchList 3D uses computer interfaces and functions that are already known to you to assist in designing and planning the project you wish to build. These techniques are spreadsheet, data entry forms, simple graphics, and the ability to follow links around the project.
One example project is the 24" lower kitchen cabinet.
Adding internal frame and drawer slide to 24" cabinet base.
Adding face frames to the 24" base cabinet.
Modifying 24" base cabinet to 36" width.
