    I see, you do not trust my ability to read Gcode...
    It does a 0.3mm diameter helix.
    Here is the code for the boring operation:

    G0 X0.075 Y7.675
    Z15.
    Z-1.3
    G1 Z-3. F1206.
    Y7.825
    X0.069 Y7.854
    X0.053 Y7.878
    X0.029 Y7.894
    X0. Y7.9
    G3 Y7.6 Z-3.5 I0. J-0.15
    Y7.9 Z-4. I0. J0.15
    Y7.6 Z-4.5 I0. J-0.15
    Y7.9 Z-5. I0. J0.15
    Y7.6 Z-5.5 I0. J-0.15
    Y7.9 Z-6. I0. J0.15
    Y7.6 I0. J-0.15
    Y7.9 I0. J0.15
    G1 X-0.029 Y7.894
    X-0.053 Y7.878
    X-0.069 Y7.854
    X-0.075 Y7.825
    Y7.675


    If using a 3mm cutter the code would give you a 3.6mm hole if runout is 0.
    3.7mm if runout is 0.05mm.
    The only way to get a 3mm hole from a 3mm cutter is a direct plunge.
    Surprised fusion didn't tell you it's too large.

    Use a 2.5mm with helix 0.25mm.
    Still the issue around the edges though.

    With that program he should get close to his 3.3 diameter hole
