Where is your model in relation to xyz zero?
In Rhino you will move the model. If you are nervous about screwing something up then do this. Copy your model and paste the copy in the same...

What is a good way to toolpath a cleanup pass when profiling?
For example imagine circle cut out of 0.75 inch thick MDF or plywood. I would normally select profiling and set the cutter to climb cut...
Got it Dan. Yes i agree.

Do the madcam lines represent the tip of the cutter when surfacing?

These planer lines are not on the surface at least as they are represented here graphically....

Pretty good outcome. Some weirdness when the bit first enters the cut at the start of the M. I think this can be fixed by setting ramp to zero. It will get sanded away.

And so now the cutter stays inside the the lines. There are no region curves set.

Cut link distance should be set lower than the cutter.

Joakim responded to me with an email.
His answer was as i suspected. I had a setting that was causing the cutter to plow through.

I sent the file to the one who took my $750.00.

What format for the file is best for this forum. I can email a rhino file if you can receive.

These region curves are about as secure as the US border

Why do I even need a region curve? Why can't the cutter stay inside the curve to rout the pocket. A pocket is never two things, just one pocket.
I really want this to work. It seems overly complicated.

On a related note.
When I try to pocket these closed curves within the model if I choose them all routes through the walls.
But if I select them individually the toolpath is okay
I...
Why does the cutter plow through the wall ?
I am pocketing these letters. you can see where the cutter plows through the wall
As far as I can tell the curves are closed.

edit note....
Just out of curiosity where is the Z zero for your model I assume it is set at zero.
Why do you use 0.2 for the top.
I had a problem the other day with a tool that gouged the top of my...
I think the positive value raised z will work better now that I think about it. Because it will cut some air in the beginning but it will only lower the Z to the surface of the spoil board. The...
Oh I see now.

And then I learned it's better to use the curves on the top of the surface and put in negative number in the raise z
