I’m trying to carve Halloween lanterns. The carve depth is carving way deeper than my material. It is cutting down deep into my waste board. I added MDF strips to my waste board to protect the original waste board.
It is also cutting through my tabs. This is a copy of a project somebody else shared so I don’t know if that is part of the issue. I have looked until my eyes hurt.
Here is where I published the Project: Halloween light 1 | Inventables
Have you calibrated your Z axis?
Did you verify your material thickness with Calipers? (I set mine .03 more than material thickness)
How are you setting your Z point? Probe or manually?
I don’t know how to calibrate the z axis. I may need to since I added the MDF strips on my waste board. I do use calipers to verify thickness. I set my Z point using the probe.
Have you checked whether the Z-Probe height specified in your Easel machine configuration matches that of your actual Z-Probe?
Here is a good video by @PhillipLunsford for calibration.
