First attempt at MPCNC and looking for some advice on overall dimensions for conduit. I ordered the kit which covers 24"x24" (or variations but I want square). I was going to cut the pipe today using the calculator but I noticed the calculations were using work area, not footprint. I’d like to build with the recommended 24x24" footprint but I guess I need to know the work area first to use the cut calculator. Any advice?
OK so a 24"x24" footprint only yields 12"x12" actual working space? 50% loss? sounds like a lot but I guess factoring in width of the z rail, what’s that 6" on all sides, it’d make sense. Guess my next project will be making it larger!
