I am new to this I have been playing with desk engrave and Kelly cam. I made a sentence to start with in deskam then saved as .DXF then imported to Kcam I brought the tool down to the top of the MDF I was attempting to cut into then zeroed all of the axis's the started the program in automatic. Well the tool moved up then over to the start position then down to about 1/4" above the MDF not actually cutting any thing? In the table set up there is the travel cut I set to .250. I don't know the difference between the normal cut and deep cut so I had them both set at 1/2 the diameter of the ball cutter I am using in my dremel. Hoping that it would be the depth of cut into the material. Can any one set me straight so I can make my first successful cut with my router? I have been changing the cut depth to no avail.
The software so far has been the most challenging portion of the project!
Thanks Clint
