Shop drawings and cutlists for cabinet and millwork shops.
I'm Daniel Osbourn. Through Selidor Design Solutions I draft cabinet elevations, plans and production-ready cutlists, and I write CAD tools that take the repetitive work out of drafting.

What you can hire me for
Drafting support for shops that build cabinets and architectural millwork, from a single elevation set to steady overflow work when your own drafting is backed up.
Shop drawings
Plans, elevations and sections that show the customer what they're getting and give the shop floor what it needs to build it.
Cabinet elevations
Fully dimensioned elevations with cabinet sizes, door and drawer layouts, fillers, clearances and finish callouts.
Cutlists and optimization
Part lists and panel layouts prepared for production, with material and edgebanding sorted out before anything hits the saw.
CAD automation
Custom AutoLISP routines for AutoCAD and BricsCAD that take over the repetitive parts of drafting.
3D modeling and prototypes
I model parts in Fusion 360 and 3D print them, so a jig, fixture, custom fitting or one-off piece can be tested in the hand before you commit to building it.
How a project runs
Four steps, start to finish. Most of it happens over email, so it works the same whether your shop is down the road or across the country.
Send what you have
Architect's plans, field measurements, a hand sketch or a design file. Tell me your shop standards and your deadline.
I draft the set
Plans, elevations, sections and details, drawn the way your shop builds.
You mark it up
Send back redlines and I update the drawings until the set is approved.
Build from it
You get final DWG and PDF drawings, plus cutlists ready for production.
Recent work
A selection of drawing sets. More samples are on the way. Email me if you'd like to see something specific.
Software I work in
I can work in your shop's software or deliver standard DWG and PDF files.

Take a cabinet apart
Every cabinet I draw breaks down into parts like these, and every part gets a line on the cutlist. Choose a cabinet, then pick a part to see its line.
Sizes are for illustration. Real cutlists follow your shop's construction standards.
About
I'm a drafter who works on the production side of cabinetry, turning designs into drawings and cutlists that a shop can actually build from. I've done contract CAD and millwork drafting for custom shops and work daily with cutlists and panel optimization.
Before drafting I worked as a computer technician, which is where the automation habit comes from. I'd rather spend an evening writing a routine than spend a month doing the same clicks by hand. Away from cabinets, I model in Fusion 360, prototype on my own 3D printer and write GDScript in the Godot game engine.
The business is named for Selidor, the farthest isle of Ursula K. Le Guin's Earthsea, out at the western edge of the map where only dragons live. It's a reminder to go the whole distance on every drawing set.
