Those were all great ideas . I really like the one for cutting out a pocket and then using that for exact positioning every time
Great timing. I am working on both of these issues because I am a newbie.
Parallel Raster pattern would be great for pocket clearance to do away with expanding square flattening pattern
I have a 4x4 Pro 5 machine. I see you using a 1/4" mill to flatten the waste board. For larger tables would suggest using a larger mill (3/4") or would you stick to the smaller mill?
For Shapeoko you should use our 1” McFly Cutter. shop.carbide3d.com/collections/cutters/products/mcflycutter?variant=39332570955837
There should be an option for rastering a pocket, especially when using a facing mill that should never be plunged in the center of pocket. Having said that, I just leveled my 48x48 yesterday by manually creating a rastering program for one 3x48 slat and running it 12 times, shifting 4" over each time.
Hey Nick, How about a video on your Carbide Create & Pro what all the features do with a visible of what they do. Also, importing STL files and how to make parts for it.
Head on over to My.Carbide3D.com There you will find a a series of instructional videos covering how to design in Carbide Create and Carbide Create Pro.

Carbide Create Pro: my.carbide3d.com/#Carbide_Create_Pro
At My.Carbide3D.com you'll find a video covering working with STL files.
Additionally the below linked videos here on UA-cam cover that exact topic.

I see the previous episodes of The Support Show, but episode 6 is missing. Is there a reason for its absence?
Sadly, sometimes the technical glitches win.
So should I do this on my 4 xxl I just got recently ?
Yes, you definitely should level your wasteboard. The hybrid tables on the Shapeoko 4 / Pro / 5 Pro all benefit from this process.
Why don’t you go over updating your instructional pdf files? Since none of them are relevant or relatable for Shapeoko 5 Pro users… no guidance with BitRunnerV2 Deluxe, no guidance with BitSetter; yet they all say they’re plug and play with the 5 Pro. Should’ve just went with a longmill.
Have you been to My.Carbide3D.com? It is the location for everything you mentioned.
In addition to a wide variety of video training covering machine topics, projects and more.
