Just standard vinyl sheets for a “cricut” vinyl cutter. 12 x 12 I think?

Most manufacturers do this. I think it's for safety. If you use the ISOSKI tool, it won't recommend settings any higher than 10. I think ISO wants din setting higher than 10 to be printed in bold as a precaution

If you want to do it without unmounting your toes just unscrew the din screw all the way and pull the housing off the pedestal. Definitely make note of how the pieces go together when you take it apart so you can put it back together correctly.

Here’s what the toe looks like if you take it apart with the afd/pedestal still mounted.


If you are comfortable taking them apart I recommend it over un-mounting them just cause remounts can get a little sketchy. If you do decide to go the remount path just make sure you reseal the holes with wood glue.

ColoradoDogfartanybody know how to do this with the old pivot 14s?

Same tabs as with the 15/18 toe. The AFD is in the way though so you would probably need to unmount them to do it

Yeah you could do it with some sort of hook. The 15 toe wouldnt be too bad, the old 14 is way harder to unhook but is probably possible
