Distance front edge to forward edge of work area?

Thanks, that is super helpful @Heyward43. I haven’t assembled by machine yet cracking open boxes today. I am hoping I can join in on cutting retaining clips for face shields and contribute to local health care or maybe grocery or other workers who need them.

I needed the measurements so I can properly calculate center on my vertical wall mount that I’ve been working on in parallel as detailed in another thread. Vertical milling, but with horizontal orientation so you can side load long pieces

I’m glad I asked about the measurement, I had incorrectly estimated more than 3 inches and since I want to route some 3/4" dog holes along the front edge in order to balance work pieces on them during loading and I would have put them in to the work area without that info.

Presumably it is safe to safe approximate center is 17" from the front edge (2" + (30"/2)). That is really what I was trying to ascertain so I can center that line on the wall.

Thanks!
