    This module allows for the creation of a group of holes simultaneously for the use of knock down fittings. While the interface is a bit more extensive than other modules, the actual insertion of the holes is far simpler as only two points need to be selected in the drawing. Only some of the holes will need to be drilled for the various fittings, not all six. The same preset feature is included, thus allowing a single set up for each type of fitting, whether the joinery has an internal or external reference. One of the new conceptual features in the concept of creating line of fittings based on a front point, back point and then either the number of fittings along the joint, or the maximum distance between the fittings. One can also create a single group of holes if desired. A group of presets will be provided, in addition the user can create their own easily. Please see the drawing below for a few examples of the type of fittings that can be created, in addition to the concept for the creation of the holes. The holes can be placed either parallel to the joint edge or perpendicular, allowing for a wide variety of fittings to be used.
