When you set your cut out they go in automatic one tab per ft you also can choose on the cut out more tabs if you desire

Welcome to this forum, looks like you are new here, not sure what you mean about setting tabs, I find you need to outline your patterns to make a cutout. There are tips and tricks posted on this forum to show how to do that. About your 8 foot board, You need out feed tables to do that, I make trim patterns that are 4 inches wide, you need the out feed tables and it would take about 8 hours to make a detailed carving. Welcome and have fun.

thank you I will look for the tips and tricks on cutouts. I tried to layout a simple pattern on a board I set up as 8 inches wide and 8 foot long. I cannot figure how to lay this out. I do have outfeed tables with rollers for this project.
