Problem with deer machining

Post by B Griffith »

Hello,
my first problem. I have purchased the animal collection and most cut very nicely. However the deer does not cut one of the rear legs. I've tried this a few times but it misses the same spot evrytime. I've tried to cut in a different location on the machine. same problem. Any ideas?

PS I don't know how to attach a picture. it says too big a file. :(

The Deer cuts fine, I have cut many of them. I think you have to increase the z depth when you setup the model for the toolpaths in cut3d which will bring out the detail better.

Hello B Griffith,
I'm curious at how it looks in the preview.
Does the problem show up in the preview?

There may be a problem with the file its self.
You might want to email James at
jab(at)carve3d(dot)com
with this issue. Send a photo of the problem and I'm sure he'll reply without much delay.
