Anyone use Lamello Cabineo connectors? Machining issue drilling vs. routing
I figured out how to use the Cabineos and successfully have the edgearray machine token and all that.

But where would I even set that tool number? As you can see, it is using the 3/8" bit for the pline which is for the Cabineo cap
