    hey all. I made a panel the other day and it was slightly off. I checked my machine for square by running a 3.4.5 test. standing at the front of the machine with zero to my left I ran up the y and to the right. I ran 45 inches to the right and drilled a small hole with an engraving bit. just a small hole to make a mark. I then ran back to the front of the machine for 36 inches. I then drilled another small hole. I had a line that was 36 inches now. I then ran the machine left 27 inches and made another mark. after that I measured from my last mark back to the first. instead of 45 inches I had 45 and 1/8th. I tried a few different fixes to no avail. does anyone have the easy breezy method to get this gal square? thanks for your time and I hope everyone is doing well. JC
