Can the panel be cut to a smaller size to fit a smaller surface, i.e., make its length shorter?

Good question, no you shouldn't, you will expose the rest of the panel to water and dust damage. It is sealed around the edges. Usually if you damage a portion of a panel you will lose much more power than what was damaged. Cutting will compromise the integrity of the panel. Either leave it attached and the extra folded over the edge or figure out something else.

Cutting the panel length down maybe be possible, but would reduce the output of the panel proportionally to the amount of lost length. Also the complete panel is comprised of multiple smaller flexible panels so you would likely have to cut along these divisions to have sucess and reduce the risk of trashing the whole panel. I would advise you to buy a shorter, lower wattage panel if you has space restrictions.

yea and if you really wanted to shove it somplace small there is most of an inch on the end of the pcb with nothing on it so you could trim it, for a custom fit

You can string as many panels together as you want. You can change the shape of the confinement area. It's pretty easy, you just have to take your time.

You can cut them to the size you need. The panel is a solid molded plastic; very strong. there are no predrilled holes for screws. The only consideration you should make is the length. You need to span 2 wall studs to secure it without risking failure. That would make the smallest length about 17". Paint may be a issue. The hardware will scratch the paint off if you are not very careful installing it in the grooves.

No. You need to measure the dimensions of the machine and make sure it doesn't exceed the cut out dimensions. The machine can be smaller, but not bigger.

Hi anne i'm not sure if you can cut it that' s why i prefer to go smaller than bigger i think that maybe if you cut the ends it could loose a bit of shape i hope i help you any doubts ask me .

Yes you could shorten the legs by cutting a few inches off either top or bottom.

Yes. I have the four panel one, and I have it in a square. You can buy the extra panels if you want it bigger.

Yes. It's not pretty but the rivets on the side can be used to make it smaller. Here is a link to it set up in my kitchen: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=211457852382694&set;=a.196875540507592.1073741834.152038078324672&type;=3&theater;

Those bottom rails clamp onto the ends of the panels by screwing tight, so you can cut those panels to whatever length you like. \/...what she said...\/

Yes, you can cut it to whatever size you want actually--I left a review about how that was done. I have mine mounted in where a lazy suzan would normally be.

The simple answer is yes. The software that comes with the unit has several frame options for cutting, you might have to play to get the exact size you want. You would actually probably have to place the "frame" onto a sacrificial board and cut through the frame board to get what you want as a separate piece.

I don't think it would be easy to make it smaller. The material it is made from is quite thick and stiff.

Flat side to flat side about 5'3". From one point of hexagon across to other about 6'. You can eliminate one or two panels to make it smaller. It is designed to be flexible. Can be set up as a rectangle also. Each panel is 3' long.

Yes I am sure you could. Simply cut off a few inches on each piece. The issue is the spring loaded insert that goes through the holes to determine the length. It probably could be moved with a pop rivot.

It might be able to. The "grid" you see on the product image is basically 1" increments to guide you in cutting down to the desired size. So, it SHOULD work. but I have never tried it. I'll give an 85-90% probably yes. Hope that helps.

Yes. They can do smaller sizes, and yes they would have to cut the combs down to size... Also they would need to try to get the paper aligned to cut the holes in the proper place though.
