OK, I need to address some questions like this since apparently this instance won't display all comments (actually most comments!)

The grid exists so that I can use rubber to wrap around it under the part where necessary. As someone pointed out. you can see a bit of the rubber on the left side.

I realize this is a basic question, but how do you isolate zones of the vacuum table to maintain vacuum just where your part is? Is the waffle grid not continuous? Do you have something to pack under the perimeter of your stock to seal it?

But double sided taped is such fun foreplay. Especially UHB. Yes, your part is done, but can you get it off without scraping it?
