 The cut bed and guides are rotated slightly anti-clockwise, this means anything you align to the guide will be off a bit of what you may expect. For example, a straight horizontal line engraved on a piece aligned to the left edge guide will appear at a downward angle from left to right, on the piece. This also means if you start at (0, 0) and cut straight down ''you'll cut into the the guide'', oh no!
-:'''Work around:''' There is a simple jig that's been cut and lives on the bed, it's a brown piece of MDF. If you want a square cut using the jig, place your piece in the top left corner against the jig and position the laser at x=21.9, y=0 (two presses of the right arrow on the controller).
