And yet there are reporting customers who routinely have increased their per crew kitchens installed from one per day to two, three and four kitchens per day, utilizing standard system techniques. First, relatively few frame-style cabinets get full backs, receiving their rigidity from the frame structure itself. We scribe either end or both ends as needed, and we scribe to the ceilings as well. We can take consolation from the emerging frameless technology, in that it has been clearly intent upon facing up to the various problems manufacturers have been wrestling with through the ages. From the Bauhaus to Rosenheim the line tracks straight and sure.
Form does indeed follow function.
As we've enunciated here time and time again, the first great struggle for the manufacturer is to come to terms with who he is as manufacturer. This is where the rubber hits the road. In Figure 1, if we are cutting finished ends in a grained or patterned piece the grain, or pattern, will run at right angles to the other four cuts from the panel, effectively reducing the yield by 25 percent, from five sides to four. An important point is that our yield just underwent a quantum leap forward, as we can see in Figures 2 and 2a. Beyond the cutting choice, however, we begin to get positive benefits in installation.
