Is there any way to speed up feed beyond the overide?Even using the max override machine is still slower than i think it can go

Thanks for the help.After changing the IJ mode the files ran perfectly.DumbQuestion but what does the IJ mode mean?Do I have to switch it every time or does it stay set?Alao do I have to switch it back for 3D carvings?

General Mach Discussion / unexplained circle

« on: February 24, 2011, 06:49:05 PM »

I created cabinet file in eazycab 9.0 and imported the dfx to cut 2 d.After toolpathing and checking all dimension and running tool path preview i saved the file .Then i placed the file on thumb drive and took to my machine (24x39 k-2).The right side shows up fine and runs.The left side has a mystery circle at the toe kick cutout.Ran an air run on the left and it does try to cut the circle. Any ideas?Can this be edited out of the gcode and re saved?
