Rough cut does not touch material

Post by JPaden2200 »

I downloaded the Christmas writh with bow project. It is compatible with my version of v-carve and Aspire. I recalculated the tool paths, checked the material parameters and set the job up using the virtual zero. However, when I run the rough cut tool path, the tool misses the material by about .25 inches. It will not rough cut the material. What would be the most likely reason? I did use test material, (Styrofoam) and the finish cut works, but not the rough cut. Thanks, Jack
