Practical tips for best results
Test on scrap material to dial in feed rates and cut order. Use a sharp bit for clean edges, and consider a sacrificial backer board to minimize tear-out on the first pass. Plan your cuts to preserve the crisp profile, and finish after molding to ensure a smooth, even appearance across all pieces.
