Issues with circular shapes (another newbie question!)

[rjavier (Rodolfo Villanueva)]

Hello fellas! I’ve been doing for the past two weeks lots of fun stuff with my XXL SO3, but I ran into issues with the simplest of things.

On this two images, you can see that very simple circular pockets always have dented edges on the exact same “side”. This pics are shown in the orientation of the machine. Both pics were done with two different 1/4 square endmills.

What seems to be the issue?

Thanks!!
