Oval Rotation on Outside: FrameShop Configurations Scree
Oval Rotation on Outside | |
---|---|
The Oval Rotation field controls how much the foot block will rotate before cutting. Adjust the Oval Rotation if you are getting Bumps or Feathers on an oval outside. If you have too much rotation on an oval outside, you will get a Feather, too little and you will get a Bump. | Oval Rotation Adjusts for Feather or Bumps in the Oval Outsides |
Current Bevel Type | |

Select the desired Cartridge Type Tab and then the bevel type you want to edit from the Current Bevel Type dropdown control before making adjustments. Select Current Bevel Type-Front of Mat if it is being cut from the front of the mat. | Select the Desired Bevel Type From the Bevel Type Dropdown Control |
Degrees of Rotation for Oval Openings | |
