Hi I am an event prop builder.

Im new to the CNC and I’m building something new with it.

My issue: my files look good in fusion 360 but in Mach 3 the first line is moving right on top of my stock. In other words. I zero the machine out and press cycle. The tool goes up starts spinning, lowers again and moves accross my material and damages the wood or break the bit. The procedure I want (which I would believe is normal) is that the tool goes up and across a few inches off the material and then lowers or ramps into the wood. Anyone?!?? Help?!?!?
