Lock Dowel works for the cabinet box and drawers, but (as far as I know) not face frame assembly.- Lamello can do both RTA (clamex) and glue/clamp(tenso) - this is especially helpful when assembling difficult to clamp shapes or large assemblies.- Lock Dowels were a little fiddly on bigger wall and tall cabinets - difficult to line up the pieces.? They work great for smaller cabinets that are easier to reach.-Lamello can do miters and hardwood assembliesOn Feb 6, 2024, at 3:05 PM, Sawdust77 <rscotthanna@...> wrote:Andy,I am not adverse to getting a Lamello but I already have the CNC.

() I am planning on building new kitchen cabinets and considering this product for assembly. My shop is absolutely jammed and I don¡¯t have room for assembled cabinets during the build and finishing stages. One big plus of this system is that I can spray and store everything flat and assemble just prior to installation.Thanks,-??????????Scott Hanna
