Carbide Create file to cut new hybrid table slats Shapeoko Pro 5 4x4

There’s a 4x2 file on Cutrocket:

which could be adapted (see below)

and a guide for the 4x4

The problem of course is that it’s not really possible to make new slats in a straight-forward fashion — they don’t quite fit, unless you cut them on a diagonal, which is a pain:

Or, of course, one could tile or rotate if the boards are the right length, or if one cut them to length w/ the second operation.

I believe @Radiation worked up a file for cutting strips which are a bit short — check in at support.

We don’t sell them, MDF is heavy, and the square corners are fragile and breakage rates for such are high in our experience.

I don’t know of any 3rd party sellers, but it should be possible to use:

to have someone make them w/ a table saw and a drill press — or just pull a filler strip in reasonable condition and use it as a template.
