Feet on serving tray? I always want a serving tray to sit flat for stability when there isn't quite enough room for it while unloading.

Feet will make it wobble in some situations.

That is the best looking tray in my book! +1

And I think I remember that "last pass" will ignore lead-in and lead-out settings.

Without redoing a part, I'm remembering that is why I quit using it and just created my own "last pass" toolpath.

That joint holding the legs together is a mystery to me. How did you do that?

These corian pieces have an - offset of -.004, -.003 and -.002, amazing what difference a small amount makes. From the photo, I can't see much/any difference from 0.002 to 0.004. I'm assuming putting them together feels different. Does the 0.004 feel really sloppy in comparison? My wife is a puzzle...

Karl, you've attached a screen capture where your material thickness in Job Setup is 0.78". Then you've mentioned a board thickness of 0.77". That is 0.010" difference. I set the z based on the top of the material surface using bitzero in Carbide Motion. Don't forget that using the Bitzero device is...
