What am i doing wrong with this file? I am trying to make an egg tray and this is my test file. I’ve already done 3 tries, different settings and it leaves behind these lines of material that I have to sand down. It ends up looking exactly like the simulation even if I do a few finishing passes.
Any help is appreciated. I was trying to make a deviled egg tray for super bowl today aghh

I don’t have CCpro, but it looks like a stepover problem to me. I like to use 8% stepover with a .25 ball nose for stuff like this.
Here is 3 finishing passes with a 8% step over. I just dont understand, its frustrating. I’ve tried so many different settings.

Stepover is set quite high:
If you increase that to a much smaller value (or values if you retain two 3D Finishing paths), then you should be able to arrive at something like:
Hi Will, thank you for the quick response. Are you able to share the file so I can see what different settings you used?
Here is an updated one on my end using .04 as stepover… much lower than .125 and still not getting anything clean.

Try 0.015 for at least one of the 3D passes.
That worked! Thank you so much! This was my first time experimenting with 3D so this was a good learning curve.
