Wrap a Paper Strip Before Planning Cylindrical Text

Check the reading path first

AntBelt supports cylindrical engraving. Before planning text on a curved item, wrap a paper strip around the intended area and mark where the reading path begins and ends. This is a layout check, not a statement about final rotary accessory details or supported object sizes.

Treat the first wrap as a question

Keep the strip with the design notes so the next layout can be compared thoughtfully. Browse /updates/ for more planning ideas.
