Re: Z axis cut depth

Bob
On the machine I touch the tip of the bit on the spoil board and "Set" it at .000
In the file I have been setting the Start Depth at .0. After looking more closely at "D" I should be setting the start depth at .5. Correct?

I created a new .crv and .tap file for the same project. I have attached them both.A similar thing is happening. With this .tap file the first cut is .5" deep rather than .375

Re: Z axis cut depth

Need more help.
When I create the tool path file I "lose" the .crv file
