    Backlash shouldn't be the issue, I do have .001" on each axis, but have backlash compensation on in Mach3. My manual programming yields no issues with backlash. My Madcam post shouldn't turn off backlash compensation?

    Lets have a look at your program/gcode. Your CAM may in fact add both 'counter-backlash' & 'backlash' every now and then, which is what I've been suspecting from the start (tol).
    If you upload that program that'll make it much easier for us to debug remotely

    Here is the gcode in attachment. I used this to skim the part .002" to see if the cut quality was better. Finish turned out exactly like original
