I am having a frustrating problem… I cut a pocket measuring 5.125" x 8.75" I then cut a piece to fit in that pocket… the same dimensions, but the finished piece measured 5.0010" x 8.6875, approx 1/8" difference in width, and 1/16" in length. Any idea why this happens? The pocket size is dead on, so it’s confusing to me why the difference in a pocket or an outside cut. (The toolpath for outside cut was set to outside/right) I can cut the piece again and adjust the measurements, but it stinks to have to do it again and not know why
What bit did you cut the insert with. If it was an 1/8" maybe you did an inside contour instead of an outside contour. The default if inside and I have done that before. The defaults always seem to be opposite of what I usually do so I wish I could change the defaults.
