I’m trying to get around the limitations of creating a cutlist for wood working.  
I’ve modeled a cabinet with drawers and made a copy of the parts so I can lay them out on a sheet of plywood.

However after doing that I realized I needed to make a few adjustments on the model.  
These changes didn’t make it to the drawing.  
Is there a way to connect them so that any changes I make not the model will be reflected on the drawing using a copy of the model ?

Re copying the model and exploding it to re layout the pieces is a bit of a pain.

we are working with computers after all.
