Hello

i search and found that it a problem with the offset tool. When i indicate in Mach 3
the size of the mill (offset tool) the cnc mill the right size.

I a a little bit dissapoint because i had understand that lazy cam normaly
make the right compensation for the tool and not mach 3.

is that so ?

 ;)

i continue to search and found the options G41 G42 in the post gcode
fontion to Mach3.

It is much better now, the offset of the tool is take in consideration.

I will continue to learn...

Happy new Year,
