    New DIY Router Cutting Issues

    So I built a cnc router with a 1.5kw spindle and 3 Nema24 steppers. I previously built a cnc laser engraver which works great.

    I am just trying to get this new one to cut what i tell it to. RIght now I am trying basic things like cutting out a basic design outline from wood.

    I am creating my design in Inksape then converting to gcode with MakerCam. Everything looks good and the path looks good in MakerCam but its not cutting anything properly.

    See attached. Not sure how this design and G Code gives me the design on the wood. I am using TB6600 drivers as well.

    I have the moving distances perfect. I measure and adjust the GRBL settings until its dead on.

    Any help is appreciated.

    THanks,

    Charlie
