I don’t know if this will help or even fits in here, but 90% of my carvings are under 12”x 28”.So if the project is 4”x 4” to 12’’x28” I carve almost all my projects on a Sled using double sided or wood turners two way tape 1”x 25 yards for $4.49. I give the program the size of the Sled 14”x 36” as my project and add the thickness of the bottom of the Sled (3/4 +3/4 =11/2) tell the machine to center and stay under the rollers. As long as I center the project on the Sled, the measurement as far as the machine is concerned is always the same. That way I always have the needed inches at the ends of the board. I’ve built 3 different Sleds, so I can be carving 1 project while setting up another. If you use the search in this forum you’ll find several posts on using or making a Sled to fit your own needs. At least it works for me.
