A contour following machine for altering the edge of a material, which includes a horizontal work surface, a dial plate, through which a vacuum may be drawn, situated on the horizontal work surface, an edge-altering device, a rotary table upon which the edge-altering device is positioned, and a cut-out channel through which a connection between the dial plate and the vacuum is established. The edge-altering device is located at an end of the horizontal work surface and the cut-out channel extends to a far end of the cut-out channel positioned beyond a center point of the horizontal work surface. The dial plate can be moved to any position between the far end of the cut-out channel and the edge-altering device end of the cut-out channel. The edge-altering device may be a sewing machine, a knife, or a water jet.
