Use Coverer? That should probably work here.

Weird. Strange image format? could you email it to me, as well as all files you
have for this project, including intermediate ones if you kept them (I hope I'll
figure out which is which).

This is something that happens with Projector when something in the pattern is
projected where there is no surface in the former (we get y=0 there). This
should not occur with Slicerpro, since everything in the pattern that lies
outside the former is deleted. But Slicerpro is very young, there may be
remaining bugs!

Even against that http://www.bricklink.com/PL/57520pb01.jpg?0 your part doesnt
look bad.
