There’s a sample file for this sort of thing at:

Wasteboard Plans with threads

@The_Researcher @markwal @rwizard @WillAdams @RichCournoyer @BoscoBob Thank you every one who added to the discussion here. Its a sign of a growing forum. How do we keep experienced users engaged while fully supporting our New members? I will create some Utility files in Carbide Create and work on a CNC Noob section with curated resources specifically for the newest Members. Until the “Official Getting Started Thread” gets posted, let me ask everyone: What resource files could be incl…

I worked up a file for doing one slat at a time:

Notes on rapid positions and wasteboard leveling

Finally taking the time to revisit this with other machine sizes. For a Shapeoko 3 the rapid coordinate positions are (assuming one has set the origin at the SW rapid position point): NW = 0, 350 N = 200, 350 NE = 400, 350 W = 0, 215 C = 200, 215 E = 400, 215 SW = 0,0 S = 200, 0 SE = 400, 0 which yields: [image] It is possible to move 5mm to the left along X on a Z-Plus machine, and 65mm towards the front of the machine, and the Southernmost Rapid Position Points are align…
