OTHER NOTES
▶ The first set of slots that I screwed up would have
worked fine, but because my spacing was off, they interfered with the placement of the mounting holes. That's the only reason I remade it.
▶ Why didn't I have the CNC cut the slots for me? The waste board is larger than the cutting area of the machine. There's no way to cut all the way to the edge.
▶ Here's the information on making your own waste board for the 1000mm X-Carve: goo.gl/vA822E.
