CNC-cut table for LowRider v3 (parameterized, for cutting full sheets+)

[DougJoseph (Doug Joseph (design8studio))]

@Dreyfus

I’m not saying you’re mistaken I just had in my mind that to be able to cut a full sheet the bed itself needs to be longer than that - 2823mm is it? So planed lumber would be ideal in that case

Remember, it’s not the bed that needs to be longer, it’s the side rails that need to be longer, and I’ve already planned for (and explained above, in the OP) that the rails would be of some type of longer wood or lumber. EDIT: I referenced them being cut from 1" x ?" x 10’. However, as per Ryan, it would be better to use an engineered wood, even if it has to be two pieces glued together. To quote Ryan:

@vicious1

Engineered wood will always be the most stable. In order of preference, MDF, Particle board, OSB, Plywood, Dimensional lumber. (in terms of stability for this specific purpose).

And again, him answering me asking what to do instead of dimensional lumber:

@vicious1

@DougJoseph

… what we should do instead?

Connect two pieces. If you want to use metal or dimensional lumber it is not a big deal, connecting two pieces of wood is usually not a huge deal either.
