MATERIAL

This function allows the user to set the material thickness used to build
the box.

 particle board is most common, so BLAUBOX defaults to this,

but it can be changed to any standard thickness varying from 

 to 

To change the 

 thickness default from 

 to another value, move

the highlight bar to the right using the cursor arrow keys, and highlight

MATERIAL.

Hit the ENTER key, and a window will open showing the default

thickness of 0.75" 

If you use wood of another thickness, merely

type in the value (0.125 to 0.875) for thickness, then press the ENTER
key, and the value will then be stored in permanent memory.
