Mcfly surfacing wasteboard

i tried flattening my waste board on my Shapeoko 5 pro -4x2 using the facing tool path
i have set the Y axis as far as it will go , and when i start the file it starts about 1/8" from the edge(see pictures)
i cant get the Y AXIS to go any further to zero out ,i tried recentering it
if anyone knows why this is happening ,please help


mc fly surfacing toolpath.c2d (44 KB) here is the file

Try the file/technique/documentation at:

This is the file that I used from cut rocket and it will not surface the entire wasteboard
It surfaces it and the x axis fine. but not the y axis, there is still a good 1/8” off from front that it does not surface

Photo showing the machine at the zero position and screen grabs showing what Carbide Motion shows for Position and Machine Position? (click to toggle)

Here is picture of the Y axis as far as it will go, there is about 1/8” that did not get cut (see pic)

Hopefully @KevBarn14 or someone else with a stock machine will be able to chime in here.

Maybe enable the MDI and enter the command

G0 Y-0.125

(if that moves it 1/8th of a mm, then try Y-3.175)
