Lead in/out issues with last path & allowance

Post by vtx1029 »

V-carve V8.5 seems to ignore my lead in/out (on the final pass) when using the last pass with allowance.

I get the same result.
It appears the software ignores leads on the "separate pass"

Strange.

One of the many reasons I generate two toolpaths and use the merge toolpaths feature to create one. It gives you far more control over last pass type cuts.
