Are there any recommended Z height modifications?

After looking to carve deeper than is possible (even with the spoilerbaord being below the machine) I came across such things as this:

Are these compatible with the work bee or are there others recommended?

The easiest way to gain extra cut depth is to attach a spoiler board, which is the same size as the machine footprint, to your Workbench. Then fix the machine on top of this Spoilerboard, and remove the spoiler board supports.

If you originally had a 12mm spoiler board, this would gain you an extra 52mm of Z-Travel, this an extra 26mm of cut depth. Bringing the total cut depth to 73mm.
