Yes, your A-typs file shows those dimensions but the the A1 that I uploaded has the D-type centre spot dimension? Just the centre spot the rest is fine. As it is 100mm? I resized it to the 1/32 scale size and something looked wrong, I was just saying. I may be wrong I just did a quick check to see if I could download files from here?
I could be totally wrong as I did this yesterday and my head isn't in a good place at the moment. But I was confused as to why the file was at 100mm and not a scale size? -
What I am trying fathom out is how the "offset" (the angle of the knife) is put into the hobby machines. I use 45% knives and the Offset is 0.43mm. That is set, as my knives are precision ground.

The Wiki reference is for a D-Type, used from 1946.

Cool, check your centre red disc, it loks a bit big. I compared it to you A-type which is correct? 🙂

I'm looking to see if the hobby cutters can be of use to me. More for cutting other mediums than masks but there are a few of the parameters that I have not been able to get my head around. So I may be asking some inane questions to try and work them out for myself? Standby🙄

I have found that this is the best material to use for paint masks on models, Artool Ultra Mask:

Hi all,
I have been producing paint masks to order since 2005 as Miracle Paint Masks. I am now retired but I still produce paint masks for Uschi van der Rosten and Hypersonic Models. I now just try and build models and I always paint on the markings. I will still do the odd set of masks for those that can communicate in a way that is helpful. I have tried to push the boundries of what is thought possible with painted on markings.
I use Coral Draw X6 to draw. I'm self taught so I still have some stuff to learn, probably. I use a Summa D60 plotter cutter and precision ground knives to achieve the optimal cut. I use Ultra Mask masking film for my paint masks.- 2
