So, just to update what happened... I did a ton of experiments with using virtual zero, not using virtual zero, manually jogging the spindle around, tramming a spoil board, manually editing the g-code and found absolutely nothing. Everything on the system is working properly: no play in the bearings...

Thanks for all of the responses! I'll be investigating this further in the next few days with all the suggestions. I have found how to view the virtual zero adjusted file and I suspect I can use the ctrl-c/ctrl-v copy and paste to stuff it into a text file. Are there any free g-code simulators out t...

I have never looked into editing the post processor. Is there a defaults file that it pulls this information from, or is the post processor itself a text file that can be edited? I always assumed that it was some compiled object and have never gone looking for it. What directory would that be stored...

@sharkcutup The files are attached. @Bob Nothing on the machine is moving that shouldn't. If I rerun the same file twice, it makes the exact same cuts twice. I did a few experiments with some pieces of MDF and a 1-1/2" surfacing bit and I'll put the results here when I get some pictures. The three e...

One other issue I encountered was when I was looking to see if there were updates to the CNC shark control panel. The message I got said that the revision available (V 2.1 build 22) may or may not be more recent than the installed revision (V2.1 build 25F). It seems strange to me that the only revis...

This phenomena is virtually identical to what I am seeing (https://www.cncsharktalk.com/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=6276)

It would be nice to see what the resolution was for this.

I have had a CNC Shark HD3 for several years now had experienced issues with the consistency of the Z-axis across a relief cut sign. If I try to flatten the bottom a large pocket, it's like the bit randomly moves up and down and creates something that isn't remotely flat. The latest problem is actua...
