First project - Should it really take this long to cut?

[zdozbou (Zach Ozbourn)]

I haven’t gotten my machine just yet (it says it was shipped on Friday but still no tracking available), but I wanted to get a head start on designing my first project. This is a 7in x 27in project that I’ll be cutting on a 4/4 walnut board. I think I have my feeds/speeds set correctly, based on the limited information I could find. But it says this will take 292 minutes. Does that sound right?

Can you post the .c2d file?

The #102 Default feed rate is intentionally slow so that folks won’t use it — please try a feed rate for a #102 using the material which you will actually be cutting.

Thanks, I completely missed that part of it. I saw the #102 pre selected which is what I had planned on using, and didnt even click that tool button. Down to 22 minutes now. Thanks!
