Separate last pass allowance and vacuum table

Hi all, Previously on my vacuum table I generate 2 tool paths for cutting out parts using the 'onion skin' strategy: climb cut first with 0.01 allowance and z-0.2 depth, followed by a final cut out 1 pass at full z, conventional.

Very tricky to verify everything in a complex model import. On a side note, I got fast responses from Vectric customer support team. I'm...

Importing from Sketchup

I'm doing a simple import from Sketchup 2015 into VCarve Pro and got a mirrored image instead. I did not catch the error until the machining was done and the motor mount was in the wrong place. Any idea what went wrong?
