Lenght of project issues

Hi all:

I am still "playing" with the Shark and have one issue I can't figure out. I want to carve a 6 foot board but seems the orientation is reversed. I know I've read about this on Vectric site. I've tried the tricks/tips posted (reverse X/Y plugs on controller) but project is jumbled. I've also tried selecting all vectors and rotating and it looks great in Vcarve but again is jumbled on the Shark.

Am I missing something?? Does the starting location have anything to do with it (left, right, center)??

Thanks all,

Stumped!!!

I just reversed mine . . .I was told to flip the gantry around too.
I switched the connectors and went to carving . . . it produced a mirror reversed image of what I wanted . . .flipped the gantry . . . PERFECTION!!

And I like picking center of the project but that is just preference.

For the sharks or even someone that want to put the Zero in the same setup as a 4x8 machine is to reverse the X and Y connectors and then take off the 12 bolts holding the gantry and rotate it around. This will give it to you without have to make any software changes.

Well, that seems to work!!!!!!

You guys are great - thanks again. I doubt I would have figured out transposing the gantry!!
