Best size for m4 frame for max cutting size?

i know i asked a few weeks ago somewhere, but just to confirm because i cant find it, a 8x11 foot frame is ideal compared to a 8x12 foot frame for the m4 to be able to cut a 4x8 sheet?

yes, a 8x11 frame is a bit better than a 8x12 frame
both start losing accuracy in the corners, but the 12’ one also hits limits in
the centers of the long sides

but a 9x12 frame will be better than either (but even it starts to run into
limits in the corners

play around with https://lang.hm/maslow/maslow4_frame.html to see the limits

they aren’t hard ā€˜you can’t move here’ limits, they are ā€˜things will start to be
off a bit’ and the more lines you cross, the furhter off it will be
