Is my preview off?

Post by mrwoodworks »

Attached is a preview of the large crown I've been working on. Pretty much have it ready to go then I run a preview and get some height difference showing up on the modeling toolpath.
All other toolpaths, the crown, ogee, and angle are done with a molding toolpath, the dental channels are done with a modeling toolpath. I created one model, fine tuned it, then copy and pasted it down my piece. Now it looks like the base heights are wrong, except they aren't! Whats happening?

looks good except you have 2 extra tool paths that alter the molding but not for the better

Yeah, I'm only using the first 3 paths in the toolpath tree. The other paths were trial and errors I'm working through.
