4. NESTING OPTIONS
Single-Single – Turns on the nesting function for piece
junctions where both pieces are single cut
Single-Double – Turns on the nesting function for piece
junctions where one piece has a single cut and the
other is a double cut.
Double-Double – Nesting junctions where both pieces
are double cut means that the pieces will be separated
only by the kerf of the saw blade. This positioning
will be superseded by the Double-Spacing entry in
Dimensions and Quantities .
Single Bevels – Similar to Nest Single-Single. If there are
two pieces in the le with single bevels that are identical
except one is a front single bevel and the other is a back
single bevel, this option will nest the two bevels, so they
are both cut with a single pass of the blade.
Bottom Chord – Nesting junctions where a single long
bottom chord piece may have to be spliced.
