Shapeoko XXL, can it hold 36"?

I know the description says the cutting area of the Shaepoko XXL CNC has a cutting area of 33"X33". What I’m wondering is if a 36" board will fit in this machine and only 33" can be cut on? Does this make sense? I’m not sure I’m doing the best job describing my question. I don’t need all 36" to be cut on, only to be able to fit in the machine. The dimension of my project will be 36"X19 1/2".

Thanks in advance!

Hello @ecf72

I don’t have access to the XXL CNC machine so I can’t make the measurements and give you a straight answer but maybe this information can help you out.

The footprint of the Shaepoko XXL CNC is 44.8" (X), 40.3" (Y), 16.6" (Z)

And I found this image:

So it looks like it would fit a 36" x 19 1/2" piece, but again take what I say with a grain of salt because I can’t make the measurements myself.

Maybe these other files can be useful too:


Let me know if that helps :grin:

Thanks so much for the info! I think this machine will work for what I’m wanting to do!

That is great! Good luck with your project :smiley:
