Note that the hold-down table has a grid of threaded T-Nuts that can/should be used to hold down your material. If you wish to make your own sacrificial / holding system, simply prepare to fasten it down to this grid pattern. The spacing of the threaded nuts is 4.861" (123.63mm) on both the X and also Y axis. Wtf is that spacing? Why not a nice round English or Metric spacing? Well, that is the spacing of the T-channels in the underlying bed. Get used to it and make your templates. | |||
