Yes. It is called tiling.

You can.. but it'll look like crap. Timing is meant for huge cuts that you have no other choice for. For something like that, I'd sub it out if you can t do it In house.

Unless it's going high up that no one will notice a seam.

Make sure you provide an overlap for tiling the pieces together.

If it has to be tiled, find a place in the design that a seam will be the least noticeable. Then, plan for at least 1/8" overlap. When you install the pieces, lay the bottom first, then overlap the top piece so rainwater will run off (like shingles).

Awesome, thanks
Now based off this new knowledge i have acquire how would I set it up on the program before sending it to the cutter?

Thank you so much for the information
