Any reason why it hangs over more on one side, than the other?

Good eye Paul, I have that extra for the potential for two items, a place to potentially hang a 3D printer extruder, and an air hose for blowing away debris!

Sometimes when I machine some materials I use an air blast as “coolant”. You know, stuff I do not want to soak with oil. It works good cutting Micarta. That stuff can really heat tooling up!
