    I am not sure what update you are using, but download the latest one off our website.

    There is a problem with your tool information. If you check you tool settings you will see the issue. So you should be able to edit your tool to correct the problem, but your best bet is to use the current build of the V25. There is an issue with the first build of V25 where the software was changing your tool settings for you but not in a good way : (

    Go to help and about, please post your build number.

    Same problem on V26. Doing a V-Carve with a profile to cut out a sign. Same error message.

    V26 Build 1182

    Diameter of tool must be at least 2X the radius.
    If that is not it,upload a .zip of a .bbcd file for us to look at.

    And don't just slap a /2 on the diameter or the roundoff can bite you in the rear too.
