Mach3 gcode work piece very very small
Hello created Gcode in aspire 9.4 saved it and when I load it onto Mach3 the work piece that I want to cut is very very small and the z,x,y, axis sizes change to 3 to 4 meters when they were just about 100mm before loading the gcode please help I am really wanting to cut my first bit of work
thank you

If Aspire is set for mm output then make sure Mach3 is also set for mm, or vise-versa.
