I was wondering why the x carve cuts out a second time in reverse. If it is a basic shape it goes around once, but if it is a complex shape after it is done cutting out the bit lifts and then begins doing the cut out again but counter clockwise.
I usually just hit the x button to stop the second pass, but I’m gonna be cutting out a bunch of small things tomorrow and don’t want it doing it. It would cut the time in half if it didn’t. Is there a way to stop it?
please share the project
I would bet that the shape isn’t actually fully solid but instead has a couple adjacent nodes thst are disconnected. This would be visble when the design is changed form “on path” to ,“pocket” cut type
Having same issue, when i select cut outside shape path it creates a double cut path. I tried this with different files and it doe the same thing. I imported these same files on Carbide Create and it previews properly.
This sounds like you’ve got a duplicate vector, offset just barely.
You can select the item and press E to go into the node editing tool and should be able to see that there is a inside and outside layer of nodes, you can delete one if the layers by selecting a node and pressing delete repeatedly until the extra copy is gone, … there are other faster ways to fix this issue, but this method is the most simple to explain…
