Therefore a visualization tool has been recently integrated: an interactive 3D window that allows zoom and rotation around a cabinet with the mouse, in a semi-transparent environment. Very convenient to detect the screws or the dowels and be well prepared for the project.</p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="Woodself_3d" src="https://kkbb-production.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/project_image/image/54928/Woodself_3D.jpg"></p> <p>  </p> <p> 3D tools exploitation is just at the beginning of its potential.
