OK Morgan, I have fumbled around enough now to have a fundamental grasp of the machine and the UI. 
If you are willing to make the drive just to push that button, I have a couple of pieces of 20x12 1/8" Proofgrade maple with your name on them! 
If it’s not too much trouble, please do bring the Cintique so I can see how you use it.
Bring a few files you would like to print in that maple, and if the Leather Woman has an idea she would like to try, we can learn that together!
I recommend a scrap too so we can dial that material in.
