Episode Notes

This episode of the Woodworking Network podcast was sponsored by Hexagon. Software has become crucial to successful woodworking businesses, but some shops might not recognize the name of Hexagon the software leader in the woodworking industry. More familiar are the company’s two woodworking CAD/CAM brands, Cabinet Vision and Alphacam. CABINET VISION simplifies the process for all furniture, woodworking, or casegood manufacturers by using a single, fully modular software package to go from design to manufacture. ALPHACAM is intelligent and intuitive CAD/CAM Software for Woodworking, Metal & Stone Cutting. Learn more at hexagon.com/products.

Woodworking Network is a home for professional woodworkers, presenting technology, supplies, education, inspiration, and community, from small business entrepreneurs to corporate managers at large automated plants.
