X-Carve Cutting Wavy Lines Randomly

X-Carve Troubleshooting
1

Hello All - I’ve had my X-Carve for a couple years now but I’m just really starting to get into using it a decent amount. I’m having issues with the machine cutting wavy lines randomly throughout a cut. Usually if I’m cutting a straight X or Y cut I have little issue, but If I have something that is utilizing both sets of stepper motors that’s when the issues come into play. Has anyone run into something like this before? Any help would be very much appreciated.

Example while cutting

Is that in the X or Y axis direction when cutting?

It happens on both, the attached picture is cutting on the Y axis. This isn’t a straight Y cut though because of the carve shape, so it’s still utilizing the X motors too.

Its almost like the carve takes a quick wave then goes straight again…Hasn’t anyone seen something like this before?
