I used grid array with 0 spacing for x,y set to 5 columns and 7 rows. 

We will make a box to outline to determine our tumbler processing area and then adjust our pattern to match for a perfect wrap!

Place your tumbler on the Ra2 and tighten your jaws. 

Make sure to line up the Ra2 Green Laser to the Red/Blue dot of the Ultra after it's been focused. 

I like to use a speed square to line up the Tumbler and Ra2 to make sure its fully square to the machine.
