Thanks R'Gi... I'm hoping that the BenchPilot will simulate a CNC... I have increased the size of the Workstation shelf though it's still limited by the workstation size limiting the BP's scope. Nevertheless with careful gridding and shifting left/right I hope to be able to extend the work area... if I can find a worthy project.
I've found that using Shaper Studio the plunge depth can be auto set.
If your first cut is too short... Take the second cut from the longer end... LBD
