Tool path differs from geometry

Post by enytned1 »

Hey, I bought this software a few days ago and I can't seem to solve this small problem. I created a simple sign using the vector functions in Vcarve. For some reason the tool path preview is not matching the alignment of the vectors I created. Please have a look and tell me what I'm doing wrong.

enutned1,
It looks like you move the vector after you calculated the v-carve/pocketing toolpath. I just recalculated the toolpath and it looks fine.
