Re: Depth of cut

Changing the machine to 4004 was not the answer - it actually was worse. I bumped the depth of cut to .80, and it did cut through in places. While not optimal, and prone to not producing the results I expect, is there anything else I should check? With the cut not parallel to the board, I will check...

Depth of cut

I am doing my first project, a simple Ohm symbol using MDF. I have the depth of cut set to .73, which is the material thickness. After bit changes I move the bit to contact the material surface at the X:Y 0:0 location and reset the Z to zero. I ensured the Z travel will allow the bit to go beyond .7...
