    Newbie with a Z-Axis problem

    Hello! I am having an issue where my Z-Axis is inconsistent in height. I think it may not be retracting up all the way between cuts, leading to a deep plunge on the next one? The video explains more than my words ever could.

    Not sure what the cause is. Any input? Thank you in advance!

    Hard to see your Z axis,
    May be add a retracting springs if it’s too heavy.
    I have couple springs on my to compensate the weight, it’s more reliable.
