Router bit not milling full depth

This is strange. If you want to post the Aspire file as well I can look into it. What post processor do you use? The Mach2/3 Arcs? I can generate another g-code with a custom mach3 post processor to check if it makes any difference.

Check if after finishing the job the Z0 is at the same correct height to rule out missing steps on the Z axis.

I have the 2010 screenset and I'm very happy with it. I never switched back to the ugly Mach3 default design again :)

I find convenient the Tool Change tab. For each job I set the Material Offset to the material thickness and use the touchprobe on the table. This way I never cut through my spoilboard and the Z0 is automatically set to the upper face of my material. And the XY probing wizard is great as well.

I bought it as well (a while ago), I have not yet installed it. I have too much going on at the moment to take on any more change, but you are making me feel guilty

Here's the macro and how to install it and use it

Thanks Cropwell! I'll look into this as as soon as I get more time.

I'll have to look into this, I've been the same as cropwell, kind of got resistant to change at the moment with so much going on. Looking forward to a quite period where I can try out some new things without forgetting something else!
I didn't get any time to look into my depth issue today as I had a ton of panels I had to get cut ready for glue up and hopefully oiling tomorrow.
I'll update soon.
