    Repeatable arc cutting issue

    When I try to cut the roadrunner the second outline always ends up about 1/2" off in the Y axis.

    When I try to cut the attached machine check pattern I created, everything's perfect until the first circle is cut. The first quarter of the circle cuts fine and then the second quarter ends up being a straight line along the x-axis. The tail end of the second quarter (like the last 1/16") cuts and then the last half of the circle completes fine. Clear as mud...good. Once this happens, the remainder of the pattern is about a 1/2" off, but cuts OK.

    I attached a picture of what I'm try to explain.

    I've already changed the IJ Mode to Inc, which fixed a lot of arc cutting issues. But these two issues have above have been the same no matter what the IJ Mode is set to.

    I've attached my machine check pattern if someone could take a look, that would be awesome.

    Thanks,
    Dennis
