    Remember that if you have a large pocket with text in then do an initial cut with a bigger cutter and then clean up the edges with a smaller mill. Much quicker that way.

    Having grief with this in Cambam.

    Creating the text and putting rectangle round it in Cambam.

    Problem being it then decides to cut round some letters and flatten others to the depth of the pocket.

    Tried increasing text size , dosen`t seem to make much of a difference.

    Thought might be trying to go too fine with too big a cutter but it will cut same text fine as a profile.

    Suggestions appreciated.

    Thanks
    Adam

    P.S. insulation foam and cheap router cutters is proving an economic way of finding these problems ;-)
