    There is no visible slop in my axes movements, speed seems to make little difference. Cutting height was 1.5mm it was worse at 2mm but no better at 1mm.

    this is 1.5mm steel at 30A, rear view.

    the dross chips off pretty easy, but there is a lot of bevel in the edges which varies as the torch goes round, the edges show a swirly cut type effect in many places, not smooth at all.

    in a straight line it cuts far far better.

    any suggestions?
