This works quite well. However, if you are doing a S&G and you have the design pretty well tweaked, I highly recommend the Unfold software by Doug Garmon. Cut your panels carefully and the yak literally falls together with no adjustments needed. This is what I used for the Cormorant offsets on our site.
