I have setup and cut the Heart shape from Make and Design web site a few times on a couple of projects.
This last the job was about 80% done when a line that appears to be the z axis lifts up just enough to create a ridge line in the upper right area of the heart shape.

The ridge is not in the preview of VCarve Pro 8.5
has anyone had this happen on other jobs?

Pete,
A similar event happened to one of my first projects.
It drove me nuts until I noticed that I was leaning on the machine to watch the progress.
I stopped leaning on the machine, and the problem went away.
Your results may vary...

Hmmm. That was my solution. Stay off the machine....
