My wife would like to make this for our granddaughter’s birthday. However, I’m not exactly sure how to program the machine to separate the holes to be spaced evenly. Anyone know of a way to do this? !

I am not sure if you are trying to design this in Easel or another program, but what I would do is create squares side by side and to upper and lower. Then use the intersecting corners to create the circle centered on that. Then remove the squares

You could also use Easel and select one of its apps called Array, with it you can evenly space in an array and grid.

I tried the Array app, while i couldn’t get it to put objects on a line it did work great for putting objects in a circle. If you play around with the apps in easel you can do a lot of stuff.
