Stars on wavy flag distorted

Trying to make my first Wavy flag. How do I get the stars to not look distorted. The rest of the flag looks good. The flag is about 12in x 24in.


What is the Model Resolution set to in Job Setup?

Why are you modeling/cutting these in 3D? Why not use a 2.5D Pocket Toolpath?

Upload your file?

It would help if you share your design file with tool path information. oops, I didn’t see you responded @WillAdams l

The resolution is set to very high. I just watched a Youtube video lol. I didn’t know you could cut it another way other than a 3D rough/finishing. I just got my machine 2 weeks ago.

Looks like the top of the stars is parallel to the wave. You can limit a 3d path to the stars/union and offset your Z to make it parallel.
There is no good way in CC to profile the edges of the stars and follow the wave contour.
