General Mach Discussion / oval circle
« on: December 17, 2016, 01:35:56 PM »
Hello, New to this forum and the world of CNC and Mach3.
I'm trying to gut a test circle of 49mm but it turns out slightly oval, to eliminate as much as possible i've made the circle in the mach3 wizard.
when i measure the circle it is only 48.5mm on the Y and X axis. but when i meassure on 45 degress to x or y it is the correct Dimension.
What am i missing or where should i look to correct this?
here is the g-code
